Marjan Beuker

Marjan Beuker is a Dutch painter and installation artist. She is fascinated by the elements water (referring to freedom and longing) and light (referring to warmth and belonging). They are often depicted in her work through transparency, floating images, reflections, distortions, movement and repetition. People and the world around us are an important inspiration to her. Marjan’s desire is to stimulate wonderment in the viewer, raising questions and presenting unusual vantage points. She participates in the organization Beroepskunstenaars In de Klas[Professional Artists in the Classroom] to encourage children’s involvement in the arts and culture. Marjan also draws attention to injustice through her work and her activities with the group Jubilee Campaign [“More than Human Rights: Jubilee Campaign fights for the people with no rights in this world, by placing God’s righteousness and truth over against injustice.”]
