About this artwork
This is one of my series about the human body. I integrate movement and passion. It talks about the subconscious. There is violence in this one. Maybe a refusal. I let the image come by itself, like the surrealists did. I think about Salvador Dali, I live near Figueres... the circle is twice seen in the image, it refers at a aureole or halo.

« What makes my paintings typically mine is for others to decide. I just try to make beautiful paintings, whatever that may stand for... »
Bert Van Zelm is a talented Dutch artist who has participated in exhibitions and residencies in Italy, the Netherlands, US and UK. Interested in studying the idea of how paintings lack space and time, he concentrates on pushing colour and clarity to the limit, creating mystery and satisfying his own fixation for shining elements. Van Zelm seeks foremost to surprise himself with what he makes; to surprise others - in his own words - would merely make him a clown.
