Heidi von Faber, Strawberries, 2007
About the Item
Heidi von Faber is a Dutch realist painter based in The Hague, inspired by the old Dutch Masters and their masterful manipulation of light and shadow. Her work is characterised by hyper-realistic still lifes, where everyday objects—ranging from rustic bread and glassware to modern items like plastic containers and coffee capsules—are depicted with striking precision.
Heidi von Faber’s work is a meditation on the sacredness of the everyday. By capturing the beauty of ordinary objects with such meticulous attention to detail, she transforms them into something transcendent. Her mastery of chiaroscuro—the interplay of light and shadow—imbues her still lifes with a lifelike quality, making the viewer feel as though they could reach out and touch the objects she paints.
What’s particularly remarkable about von Faber’s art is how light interacts with different materials: the delicate translucency of glass, the gloss of honey, or the fine details of fruit like strawberries. A simple plate of strawberries, bathed in light from the left, can evoke a powerful sense of tactility. This focus on light not only reveals the physical affect of the objects but also adds a layer of emotional depth, encouraging reflection on the fleeting, yet sacred, nature of everyday life.
By combining traditional subjects with modern materials—such as plastic containers or aluminum coffee capsules—von Faber creates a dialogue between the past and the present. Her work honors the legacy of the old Dutch Masters while offering a fresh, contemporary perspective. In this way, her paintings transcend the mundane, elevating it into something extraordinary. Each composition feels perfectly balanced, with every object placed with intention to create a harmonious whole. Ultimately, her work invites us to slow down and appreciate the beauty and sanctity of the simplest moments in our daily existence.
