About this artwork
In "Mummy II," I encounter the mummy of Ramses II not as an archaeological object, but as a counterpart. The reclining figure, slightly tilted in the pictorial space, reminds me of the long line of a life story that does not end in death. With the earthy tertiary colors, I seek a palette that simultaneously evokes dust, stone, and sun—and yet remains vibrant.
My profound admiration for ancient Egyptian culture stems from its masterful handling… of transience: death here was not a silence, but a transition. In the silent gesture of Ramses' folded hand and his distinctive nose, I try to grasp this dignity. Thus, the mummy becomes for me a reflection of humanity: a body that transcends time and history, and a silent mirror to our own mortality.

Marcel van Beek works with photography, painting, and graphic design, drawing on his artistic background from his studies at the Alanus University of Art and Social Sciences. His technique combines pictorialist influences with romantic-symbolist imagery. His photographs embody contemporary fine art photography and conceptual photography, often featuring monochrome recolors in tertiary colors.
He creates a poetic visual language interested in forms and structures, combining this with a modern, conceptual approach that claims social relevance. In his works, he explores inner and outer landscapes, conveying feelings of longing and threat, as well as a fascination with the hidden. He has published various art publications (most recently "World of Water," 2025), which are represented internationally in academy and museum libraries (including Vienna, Basel, Düsseldorf, and Berlin).
