About this artwork

In de stilte van de lockdown ontving ik op social media berichten die even intrigerend als confronterend waren. Dit schilderij is mijn reactie: hier wordt mijn vrouwelijk naakt één met een levendig woud van abstracte bomen, waarvan de bladeren bestaan uit teksten uit de digitale wereld. Zowel de warme als de harde notities vinden hier hun plaats, waardoor een spanningsveld ontstaat tussen bewondering en objectivering. Door de ontvangen woorden te… transformeren tot beeldtaal, vier ik de kracht die schuilt in kwetsbaarheid en de moed om moeilijke waarheden te tonen. Dit kunstwerk nodigt uit tot een reflectie op de impact van onze moderne communicatie en benadrukt dat kunst ruimte biedt voor heling, verbinding en zelfexpressie.

Het schilderij is klaar om op te hangen. Omdat de zijkanten meegeschilderd zijn is er geen lijst nodig. Op aanvraag kan het kunstwerk ingelijst worden in een zwarte houten lijst.

« When you read, you travel to all kinds of places. I try to capture them on canvas. »

Elise Eekhout is a visual artist working at the intersection of painting and graphic design. Her practice explores the language of light, texture, and text. Letters fascinate her not only as carriers of meaning but also as abstract forms — beautiful shapes that dissolve the moment we begin to read them.
By combining traditional techniques with contemporary materials such as gold and silver leaf, she creates layered works that shift with light and perspective. Depending on where the viewer stands, words emerge or vanish, landscapes solidify or dissolve. Her paintings therefore never remain static: they are living surfaces, changing with time, movement, and light.
Recurring themes in her work are memory, transformation, and our relationship with nature. From abstract landscapes to text-based compositions, she seeks to evoke both wonder and reflection. Her art connects the fragility of human stories with the enduring rhythms of the earth, offering viewers a space for contemplation.
