About this artwork
I stand at the foot of the staircase and look up: the clouds loom dramatically like a figure, the sky like a stage. The massive stones hold the space, empty of people, as if the staircase itself breathes.
I'm drawn to this ascent into the unknown, full of mystery, perhaps even deceptive—the quiet longing, the symbolic drama. The muted colors take away the murmur of time, allowing the light to become more intense. Each step promises a closer approach:… upwards, into the foreboding open—ad astra.

Marcel van Beek works with photography, painting, and graphic design and holds a degree with honors from Alanus University of Arts and Social Sciences. His technique combines pictorialist influences with a romantic-symbolist visual language. His photographs embody contemporary fine art photography and conceptual photography, often featuring monochrome recolored works that have received numerous international awards.
He creates a poetic visual language interested in forms and structures, combining this with a modern, conceptual approach that claims social relevance. In his work, he explores inner and outer landscapes, conveying feelings of longing and threat, as well as a fascination with the hidden. He has published several art books (most recently "World of Water," 2025), which are represented in international academy and museum libraries (including Vienna, Basel, and Minneapolis).
