Seller's Story

Michiel Folkers is a mixed media artist living and working in Amsterdam. Selling his work all over the world and exposing in galleries from Zurich to New York. He is best known for his layered artworks, large canvasses, in which he blend colorful streetposters together with spray paint and acrylics. He is pulling and collecting these streetposters himself for every individual artwork and is using this as base for all his pieces. On top of these layered backgrounds he paints, screenprint or paste recognizable themes for example comics or celebs (from now or the past) but also large abstract paintings. Always important the background doesn't get lost but entangles with the subject. Every piece is unique and looks like a brick of wall that you want to hang in your home. Every piece is finished with a strong and shiny lacquer layer. All artworks are ready to hang, will be shipped fast, in high secure wooden crates, together with a Certificate of Authencity.
