About this artwork
Dead leaves, seeds... I had collected them, not yet knowing what I would use them for. I did know that I wanted to integrate them into a painting. As so often, a painting happens initially 'unconsciously'. I start with a background, I have certain elements I want to use in this painting and once I have started, it all happens rather viscerally. Little by little, I understand what I am painting, what this work is about. The painting reveals itself…
to me. In this case, it is again working with the trauma I experienced. This trauma work is mostly not a conscious choice. It just presents itself, it pushes itself to the fore; I have to do it.

Agnes Boes, a Belgian artist based in Ireland, creates across painting, poetry, photography, and weaving, drawing from a rich self-taught background with formal training in Brussels and Cork. Her style weaves symbolism and surrealism in deeply personal yet universal narratives, employing a contemplative process that balances intuition and careful observation. Her works invite viewers into the landscapes of her inner and outer world; exploring trauma, the here and now, and inner silence, encouraging each viewer to embark on their own intimate journey of discovery.. Agnes Boes is a member of VIA, Visual Artists Ireland.
