COMMENTS : The work from this most recent period serves as a focus of attention to start the observer thinking. It has become a statement arising from a moment of emotion between photographer and model. In this, all the elements mentioned above finally come together. To be seen, as a great lover and collector of Johan van Breukelenıs work described it as: Clefts in reality, mirror images, painted with light, in a world which no-one sees.

The artist Johan van Breukelen originally began his artistic career as a lighting and decor-designer with several theatre companies. Since 1989, he has devoted himself to two-dimensional works of art in which he draws with light. He makes photoworks and photographs. His photoworks are a combination of photography and different drawing and painting techniques. The photographs are characterized by playing with light and reflection and the direct painting of bodys. The subjects of his paintings are inspired by men. During photographic sessions he seeks, together with his models, to imagine his ideas and fantasies, male sexual energy, strength and vulnerability. Signed on the reverse and limited to 100.
