About this artwork
My work is a mix of different pictures/images and paints which I combine on the computer and canvas to create a new image. My favorite subject is the female face. I use pictures of people and old walls, grunge posters and all kinds of other interesting subjects to create a new image again. When the digital part is ready I print the image and start painting over it. I create thick structures and a lot of layers of paint and gel over them. In this…
way, I try to make the digital image tangible again. My work is not so much about explanation and concept it is a game and all about the image. I start with no idea in general but by looking at images that interest me and by mixing them, slowly a new image evolves. All works are made on request in any size of preference. Most of these works are a mix of print, paint, grain gel, heavy gel and math/gloss coating. The works are made by hand, individually a bit different in editions of max. 25 pieces.

« I combine the digital and tangible, so I combine two worlds together. »
Karin Vermeer is an independent artist who has lived and worked in Rotterdam since 2002. Her works are created by digitally combining and editing photographs and paintings into new, original works of art. Vermeer specializes in portraits created by overlaying and blending four to five different faces, of different race and origin, to create a new, non existing person. The digital images are printed and paint is added to achieve the final result: an attempt to make a digital image tangible once again.
