• Anna Snijder

  • My paintings explore the tension between emotion and control, movement and stillness, intuition and intention. I work intuitively and in layers, allowing colour, pigment, texture and transparency to form an ever-changing visual field. Throughout the painting process, layers emerge that reinforce, obscure and reveal one another. As a result, each work develops its own rhythm, depth and presence.
    My practice is rooted in Abstract Expressionism and gestural abstraction, yet has evolved into a personal visual language in which colour and movement are central. The distinctive black line that recurs throughout my work has become a recognisable element within this visual language.
    I am fascinated by the moment when control gives way to intuition and the unexpected becomes an integral part of the final work.
    My paintings are not predetermined compositions; they emerge through a continuous process of responding, searching and making decisions.
    My work has been exhibited internationally and is held in private collections in the Netherlands and abroad.
    I am represented by IMHOF Fine Arts in Maastricht.
    Across my different series, including Anchored, I explore how inner experience, movement and colour can be translated into an autonomous abstract space.
