Some call it stalagmite landscape, others call it coral. The spatial effect of the paint makes each work special.

The work of Sander Reijgers arises from time and actions, which together form a relationship on the canvas. Hundreds of layers of acrylic, meticulously repeated on canvas form three-dimensional structures.

He gets his inspiration from paint: ‘How can I make paint transcend its own materiality, so that you no longer have the feeling that you are looking at paint’. Sander searches for the tipping point where paint becomes something else. Well-lit and with space, so that it can be viewed from the side as well as the front, is the best place for his work.

Sander Reijgers graduated from the Utrecht School of the Arts in 2006. He has been exhibiting solo through the Netherlands since 2014 and participated in group exhibitions at PAN, KunstRai and Art Rotterdam.
