About this artwork
This is one of Joris Graaf's earlier artworks, which clearly reflects the emotions and atmosphere which he wanted to convey at the time: it is bleak and grey, but also bold and strong. Like concrete.
The title of the painting refers to being scared and having feelings of inadequacy, but thriving under those conditions.
Acrylic and paper on canvas.

« Art is about creating emotional experiences. Let's make them intense. »
Joris Graaf describes himself as a completely intuitive and emotional artist. His works have recurring stylistic elements which include the intensity of composition and color combinations, high contrasts, as well as the interplay between order and chaos, melody and noise. Graaf’s artistic process begins with the quest for interesting textures and structures to photograph, which he often creates himself using varied materials. Several multiple-exposed photographs serve as the ‘raw ingredients’ of his compositions.
