Meijnard Scheers: Visual Artist and Fine Art Photographer
Meijnard Scheers is a distinguished visual artist based in Amsterdam, whose creative practice is deeply rooted in the medium of photography. His artistic approach is characterized by a process of layering, often integrating diverse elements such as projection, paint, paper, and textiles. This fusion of techniques allows Meijnard Scheers to create works that oscillate between abstract and figurative realms, inviting viewers to explore imaginary landscapes titled Without Ground, Without Destination, and Shapes of Water. The foundation of his work lies in an intuitive and free-form methodology that shuns rigid rules. Instead, Meijnard Scheers embraces visible imperfections—movement, blur, scratches, and frayed edges—as essential components that provide rhythm and breath to his compositions. These elements ensure that each piece feels alive, offering atmospheres and suggestions rather than direct, predefined meanings. Drawing inspiration from nature, art, and music, Meijnard Scheers frequently collects impressions, structures, shapes, and colors during walks in the natural world. His portfolio includes spherical black-and-white imagery and flower-like fields of color that evoke a sense of tranquil complexity. Based in the cultural hub of Amsterdam, Meijnard Scheers continues to push the boundaries of visual media, creating evocative pieces that resonate through their depth and textured complexity. His works are available for inquiry and acquisition, reflecting a unique vision in the contemporary art scene.
