André Kruysen

Den Haag, 196. Lives and works in Den Haag. Education: KABK, 1987-1992; Rijksacademie, Amsterdam 1996/1997. His work references daylight and the surrounding architectural structure. He makes interventions in spaces that influence these aspects. These interventions can result in autonomous sculptures or sculptures fused within the space. His language, in a more complex and chaotic form over the past few years, originates from the current (visual) culture that is becoming increasingly complicated. The search for personal balance forms the core of his work. Amid distorted spatial interventions, he seeks stillness; the stillness that occurs due to the sacred effect of daylight. This contradiction is the basis of his sculptures.
