NADINE VAN VELDHUIZEN
Through my research in human posture we see tormented yet wondrous figures.
These represent different layers in our state of mind, reflecting the versatility of human identity.
I construct my sculptures by pushing the limits of characteristics of familiar materials. In their own existence the figures claim their autonomy, while the interaction between them creates a new conversation.
