Painting of a row of trees with transparent light green bubbles(glow in the dark) and some golden dots. This painting is made as a requiem for the lost, burned trees. For Hester van Dapperen trees is a recurring theme in her paintings since she has been trapped for over a week in the forest wildfires of Pedrógão Grande, Portugal 2017. The painting is made on linen canvas. The paint is acrylic with medium, pigments and gold leaves. Used colors are black, white, gray, blue, green, brown and gold. ABOUT the artist her work: Hester van Dapperen explores new ways, she uses the refined and raw material in layers of which the artwork consists, instead of hiding the materials below the surface of the image, all materials are visibly used. Her inspiration she finds nearby her painting studio, in Amsterdam. The paintings often have a subliminal contemporary social message. Several aspects can reveal themselves to the spectator. THE ARTIST: “In my paintings I am fascinated by the human in motion as a reflection of modern contemporary life. I often work for years with a concept; in which new nuances arise. As I was a fashion designer before being a contemporary artist, many of my paintings have traces of fashion and textile additions. The role of the material used is also important. My favourite carrier for the paintings is fabric in different quality’s. It helps to create an effect of roughness or fragility, depth in texture and shadows. I like to use transparent layers, textile additions like patchwork, holes, cuts and sutures, embroidery. By making paint with pigments, the tone of the color can be surprisingly deeper, more intense, shiny or mat. She has for over ten years her own Gallery-Studio in Amsterdam, which can be visited by appointment. Her paintings are regularly exhibited, she sells and gets commissions for her paintings and occasionally commissions for statues, her work is also collected abroad.
