Flags of the Union 6: stained glass

Between 2013 (the accession of Croatia) and 2020 (Brexit), the European Union had 28 member states. The flags of these countries are ordered here in such a way that the boundaries are fading:: colors, surfaces and lines flow into each other and create abstract patterns. The result is then further processed into a large virtual stained-glass window.

From left to right and from top to bottom: Greece, Britain, the Netherlands, Hungary, Luxembourg, Austria, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Spain, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Sweden, Latvia, Slovakia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Belgium, Malta, France, Italy, Ireland, Romania and Portugal.

My work can be found in the border regions of photography, painting and computer visuals. With my company 3Develop I do work in commission but I use the same techniques, skills and software to make free work.

World maps and reliefs made from unique materials, vintage postcards, and futuristic space art, graphic interpretations and painterly edits, artist impressions, and abstract geometric art. But also more "traditional" photography of cities and landscapes, plants, and textures.

Originally trained as an architect and living in Rotterdam, I draw significant inspiration from the architecture and history of Roffa/Rotjeknor/Bokitodonk. Additionally, travels to places like Iceland and Great Britain, as well as walks in the Netherlands, provide ample material for my work.

All the pieces in my webshop are carefully selected for their suitability as wall art. The possibilities with the professionals at Werk aan de Muur are nearly endless: from canvas and photo prints to aluminum and acrylic glass. Square or round, framed or unframed. From an A4-sized print to wall-covering wallpaper. The perfect wall art for your living room, kitchen, bedroom, or even balcony and garden!
