About
Born in 1970 into a family of architects, Annegien de Bruijn developed a keen eye for lines, shapes and spatial relationships at an early age. As a visual artist, she focuses mainly on creating sculptures.
Her works, often made from a variety of materials, explore contemporary themes – from personal wonder to current social issues. A fascination with human behavior, emotions and social dynamics forms the common thread in her oeuvre.
‘I strive to make stories visible with a surprising twist’
That twist lies in her playful approach to serious subjects, her unexpected use of materials, or in delicate contrasts that challenge the viewer’s perception. Working with different materials continues to be both a challenge and a source of inspiration for her.
Each piece tells its own story, while at the same time leaving room for interpretation and wonder — inviting an open, inquisitive view of the world around us.
