About the Item

Vincent van Ojen is a true master of the woodcut technique. Through years of dedication and research, he has perfected this ancient medium, resulting in works of remarkable depth and expression. Van Ojen exploits the woodcut method in a way that is both free and complex, showcasing the technique's full range of color and texture. His approach to woodcut is unique: he conceptualizes from the color within his composition, rather than from a form that receives color. This methodology allows him to create layers in both form and color, highlighting the wood's texture and the overlapping of color planes in an impressive manner. A distinctive feature of his work is his use of the 'lost technique.' In this process, he carves away part of the wooden block after each print and then applies a different color. After several printings, the block is exhausted, and the print is complete. This technique requires utmost precision, as any mistake during the printing process would result in the loss of the entire edition. The seemingly effortless quality of Van Ojen's woodcuts reflects his high level of mastery and craftsmanship. His expressive, colorful works exude cheerfulness and freshness. Often choosing landscapes and still lifes as subjects, he essentially abstracts everything he depicts. His compositions reveal his abstract thinking style, and his painterly approach has become his trademark, earning him the Dutch Graphic Prize in 1992. Vincent van Ojen studied printmaking at the Art Academy of ’s-Hertogenbosch and has been a professional visual artist since 1984. His work is part of international collections and continues to be a source of inspiration and admiration. 'Hyacinth' has an edition of 22.
