Margot KleinTiessink

Margot KleinTiessink studied from 1985 - 1990 at Minerva Art Academy, Groningen. She is living and working in Amsterdam.

Margots work is a fusion of multiple images applied in layers, thus creating a particular two-dimensional image. It forms an analogy with today’s quantity of images in our daily lives. The driving force in her work is the desire for what was, is, and can be. Fiction as memory, memory as fiction. The material treatment and the colourful depiction generates a fabric feel, she experiences that process as fascinating, being able to create an alternative world. She captures time by means of photography; the photos form the basis of her paintings. This technique, the ability to combine different images in order to create a new entity, gives her an immense freedom, transforming the spectator’s view.
