Collection: Peggy Kuiper

Peggy Kuiper (1986) born in The Netherlands and lives in Amsterdam. Kuiper paints portraits of memories. The brushstrokes recall sensations, wrapping and storing each remembrance in a thick layer of paint on her signature portraits. The figures embody feelings and echoes of the past, and function as the logic of memory itself, it is immersive and experienced as unique, yet common and uniting for all of us. Memory and emotive experience demand vulnerability In Kuiper's portraits, she refuses any implication of fragility she insists on the fierce power that this holds. Ultimately, her portraits are studies of endurance.
