Description from the seller
Artist Statement
Romy van Rijckevorsel (Drunen, 1967) is a Dutch artist, living and working in Vlijmen since 2002. After a long period as a portrait painter, she graduated in 2017 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Arendonk with a diploma in Painting. Since then she has worked as an independent artist. Her work is part of collections both domestic and abroad.
Van Rijckevorsel's oeuvre is imbued with narrative: family history, memory and transmission are recurring themes, inspired by the oral storytelling tradition within her family. While her work initially tended to be figurative, in recent years there has been a steady shift toward a more abstract visual language.
Characteristic of her method is the absence of a predetermined concept: each work arises intuitively, without a clearly defined end result. This open approach yields a visual language that is spontaneous, layered and sometimes deliberately unbridled — a conscious choice that benefits the immediacy and expressive power of the work.
Ready to hang: no, the painting is carefully rolled up and wrapped and must be re-stretched by your local framer. Sending (very large formats) paintings rolled is safer and more environmentally friendly than sending ready-to-hang works.
Seller's Story
The work of Romy van Rijckevorsel is daring, colorful, very inviting for personal interpretations and not without obligation!.
Romy van Rijckevorsel paints in an eclectic way. In her work you see many references to classical artists. (eg Gustav Klimt, decorative backgrounds, but also Egon Schiele). It is also eclectic because of the different styles: drawing, graffiti, painting and
graphic elements. All these elements are very successfully combined into an organic whole in which there is also a unique handwriting lurking. That is very smart, because the combination of references and styles can also go wrong very quickly. In Romy's work, however, she stops at exactly that
right moment. The paintings are very postmodern in the sense of "everything is possible" and yet it is not restless at all. On the one hand the works are very decorative and on the other hand also hard and almost provocative and vulgar. Yet they are balanced, partly due to
the strong composition. (jury report Painting of the year 2020, eventually finished 9th out of 1250 applications)
