Krijn Kroes
Born 1994, The
Netherlands In Krijn Kroes’ works,
the canvas is host to an assemblage of enigmatic compositions in
which different natural motifs, irregular patterns and painted
reflections collide. The dark paintings never give too much away,
leaving much to the viewer’s imagination. Krijn draws inspiration
from his own background: he grew up in the Veluwe region, surrounded
by nature, and his artworks are often an attempt to convey an
equivocal sense of unity between humans and nature. Through a
masterful painting technique, Krijn creates a play of darkness and
light that causes a different viewing experience from every angle.
Krijn’s
educational background lies in agricultural and Fine Art studies. He
worked as a florist prior to graduating from Utrecht School of the
Arts (HKU) in 2020. His artworks have been exhibited in a number of
galleries throughout the Netherlands, including Galerie Ron Mandos,
Galerie Pouloueff and Root Gallery.
