About this artwork
The truth is that I paint myself ... and therefore the battle of my own body with age, my own fears and my fascination with death. In the early stages I created paintings in which human forms were visible. I painted these in a detached manner: heads were removed, the bodies were decorative, eye contact was almost non-existent, there was no contact with the viewer. As my work developed I was sitting closer to the skin, from strange perspectives I…
showed the alienation to my own body. My fascination with the body deepened, I began to paint other people, especially those who deviate from the ideal of beauty. But even more, I really wanted to paint people like you and me, a universal image of the aging person. Staying true to myself, I have confined myself to the female body.

« My work captures the beauty, the power and the vulnerability of the human condition. »
Francien Krieg is a Dutch painter whose work explores the human body as a place where time, vulnerability, strength and uncertainty become visible.
For many years, she was known for her paintings of aging female bodies, questioning conventional ideas of beauty, shame and visibility. In recent years, her focus has widened. She now paints young men, boxers, floating figures, sleeping bodies and adolescents caught between childhood and adulthood.
Krieg is interested in the body not as an ideal form, but as something fragile, strange and honest. Her paintings often show people when the mask begins to slip: a boxer after the fight, a boy floating in water, a figure resting, withdrawing, resisting or giving in.
Her work moves between tenderness and discomfort, beauty and unease. Her painting process has also become more direct and colourful, with a growing use of alla prima painting that brings immediacy, risk and energy into the surface.
