Jan Willem van Swigchem is self-taught. Since the 1980s he has been professionally involved in the production of visual art and has many exhibitions to his name. His works are in many corporate and private collections at home and abroad. Paper reliefs Creating multi-layer paper reliefs is one of his many challenges and passions. The artist draws inspiration from nature, with a focus on the way of perception. The structure of all possible elements that we can observe around us, in addition to how humans are used to looking, form the basis for their surface divisions. As a metaphor While walking on the beach, do you see the shell as a small, beautiful painting, or do you imagine yourself as tiny, standing on the shell, imagining looking into a landscape, or do you scan the surface of the shell, as it were, through a looking under a microscope to understand its construction. The perception of perspective, the construction of single elements into a whole form, the rhythmic interplay of lines that is always in motion when the viewer attentively looks at the paper relief from all sides, knowing that without light nothing is visible, together ensure that the paper reliefs are and remain intriguing works of art. light Due to the ever-changing light, the paper reliefs are continually reshaped. More and more hidden layers reveal themselves to the viewer. All paper reliefs and paper templates are cut and folded manually. The artist believes that imperfection is the ultimate form of perfection, after all, no leaf on a tree is the same as the other, even if it seems that way. That is precisely why nature is so beautiful to see. In addition to the double paper reliefs, the artist cuts meticulous paper templates, designed around and using mirror symmetry. Because the templates are at a distance from the background, the shadow effect creates many surprising connections and illusions. More art Other expressions of art: glass objects, mixed media, paintings, photography. In addition to visual arts, the artist is involved in applied art, in the form of “pattern & surface design”. His designs are used in a range of applications. To name a few: fabrics, as cushion covers, wall or tablecloths, or as interior fabrics. Applications such as stoneware plates, glass bowls, wooden coasters, metal brooches and much more are possible.
