ABOUT
My work is guided by intuition and focused attention. Every brushstroke, gesture, and mark
are made in the moment, without pretense. Abstraction, to me, is about being free and
brave — embracing imperfection and expressing what feels raw and real. I let intuition
lead, allowing the work to grow naturally, with bursts of energy and quiet pauses.
This process is a way of connecting with myself. It’s about letting go of outside
expectations and representation and instead enjoying open, fearless exploration and play.
I’m drawn to connection — with myself, with my surroundings, and with the world. My
work is never political; instead, it remains personal, seeking connection and celebrating
our shared humanity.
I invite viewers to feel the work, rather than analyze it — to notice what it stirs within them-
something immediate, joyful and alive.
Yours’,
Mirjam
