I feel both lucky and amazed to live in a world populated by wonderfully rich and diverse flora and fauna. However, at times I feel insecure about its future.
Nature can be beautiful: a reminder that all is full of life and is able to live alongside each other in many ecosystems. Reminding myself of this interconnectedness between all organisms gives me a sense of belonging and pride.
As we learn more about the challenges that face our planet’s natural heritage and ecosystems, I hope to inspire others to feel the way I feel about nature and look at it with a sense of selflessness and wonder. A feeling not only of here and now, but of millions of years of evolution in the past, and its future.
The future of much wildlife and biodiversity is something worth protecting. As a species we should not take it for granted. We should take pride in biodiversity to ensure conservation.
"I consider the creativity in the evolution of flora and fauna as something almost magical. The ingenuity of many life forms is something that is often overlooked by many. This sense of wonder is what I want to show in my work and celebrate nature's diversity by enhancing its mystical qualities."
Jesper Krijgsman's supernatural landscapes are places where biology and dreams merge. His work represents both daydreams of the artist and the intelligence and magic that nature possesses. He hopes his vision contributes to the realization that the natural world is full of wonders and we should treat it with more love.
His process involves photography and image editing. He photographs each flower or plants individually and while editing it, he often discovers new details in shapes, colors, and textures. These photographed natural elements are then digitally assembled to create detailed worlds that depict scenes in which the mystical qualities of the natural world are magnified. Photographing, editing, and, above all, learning everything himself about the subjects he photographs has strengthened his connection with the natural world.
Jesper Krijgsman was born in Amsterdam in 1992 and lived in Switzerland for 12 years, where he worked as a graphic designer and artist. He was named a Top Talent by Adobe in 2019 and his work hangs in multiple galleries around the world.
