Paintings by Ian Cumberland
A series of paintings by Ian Cumberland.
I am interested in the painting process and try to produce work that is honest to both the medium and the subject, this results in work that has a more expressionistic quality, a raw use of the application of paint that is immediate and ‘gritty’ but does not always create a ‘pretty’ picture.

The cross photographs are taken during the first and the last light of the day, on the Winter Solstice. I began taking these photographs to attempt to capture my experience with sublimity, while living alone in the desert of the American Northwest in the year 2001.

Family / Origin of the Beginning by Levi van Veluw
A new performance piece entitled “Family / Origin of the Beginning” by Levi van Veluw.
Levi van Veluw’s series “Origin of the Beginning consists of photographs, installations and videos in which he draws from his own childhood memories to thematically and narratively develop his own brand of self-portraiture.
Portrayed in this piece is a room with 5 persons sitting at a table. These persons are Levi van Veluw, his father, mother, brother and sister. The room is executed as a life-size installation (4m x 2.5m x 2.5m) in which everything , including the family members themselves, is covered with 20.000 dark brown wooden blocks. (without any digital manipulation)
At first glance everyone is sitting peacefully at the table, the picture of a perfect family unit. Yet this group of figures is positioned in an abstract environment, unrecognisable and therefore far removed from reality. Dimly light and dark in colour the overriding tone of this work is claustrophobic and sombre, exuding a sense of loneliness.
