Statement Dutch:
De kunst van Evelien de Jong is groots, uitbundig, grenzeloos maar tegelijkertijd ook heel intiem.
In haar werk speelt zij zelf een grote rol. Ze is 'The Artist', 'MOM', maar ook 'actievoerder'.
De wereld, de toekomst, haar passie (grunge muziek en moderne dans), haar directe omgeving; het gezin, als ook mensen/ helden die haar inspireren, zijn allen voer voor inspiratie waar Evelien geheel op eigenwijze kunstwerken van maakt.
Het is POP met een rauw randje. Daarom noemt zij haar werk SUB-POP. Naar het grunge muziek label uit Seattle. Deze muziek heeft de zelfde vibe als de kunstwerken, die Evelien maakt met deze muziek op in de achtergrond.
De kunst van Evelien de Jong uit zich in haar eigenzinnige collage-achtige aanpak. Voor elk kunstwerk kiest ze, hoe en met welke techniek, het idee het beste uitgevoerd kan worden. Materiaal gebruik, en het creeren daarvan, spelen hierin een belangrijke rol. Tekeningen, schilderijen en geensceneerde foto's laat Evelien op stof bedrukken, om zo haar twee- en driedimensionale werken op te boouwen en in elkaar te naaien.
Met haar sterke beeldtaal maakt Evelien de Jong het statement: 'Art is Activism!'.
Wat je ziet is wat je krijgt. Provoseren, emotioneren, rebelleren. Kunst over het leven.
Evelien de Jong....een rebel en erg 'Wild at Heart'!
Statement English:
Evelien de Jong’s art is controversial, exuberant, limitless, it has fantasy and at the same time it is intimate.
The world, the future and her immediate vicinity like her family, get their place in her art.
Evelien shows herself as an Artist in context with her Family life in an extraordinary way.
Often her family can be found as a model. Like 'The Enzonaut' in 'Planet Enzon'.
Evelien de Jong is preparing for the future. The world changes. Are we ready to explore the universe?
Evelien has discovered Planet Enzon. It is her answer to climate changes and other worrying developments.
Art pushes boundaries.
Prepare and take Care!
