mariekematthijs.nl I have a fascination for the sensorial feeling of touch. All surfaces intrigue me.

In my work I explore how to create art that you would want to touch. This stems from a lifelong urge to know what surfaces feel like underneath my vingers. With my art I want to provoke a similar urge in others. I sculpt with textures and experiment with unconventional materials and techniques. It is almost a quest to see whether people’s relationship with textures and surfaces can be expanded. My

proces of creating an artwork always starts with experimentation and exploration because I want to transform things I already (think to) understand. In recent years I started creating Photosculptures by treating photos prints with hot oil in order to add physical depth to an otherwise flat photograph. This technique elevates a reproducible photo into an artwork. In other projects I use materials like fungi and other edible ingredients and sculpt them into artworks to make people more aware of how fascinating textures and surfaces can be or can become.
