Dit zandschilderij uit Nederlandse aarde ontstond een paar dagen voor de dramatische dood van George Floyd. Ik heb een detail genomen van het minder bekende schilderij van Rembrandt “Twee Afrikaanse mannen” in het Mauritshuis. De mooie expo in het Rembrandthuis “Hier” gaat over een bijzondere periode begin 17de eeuw.

I started this self-portrait by Rembrandt in December 2019. It’s another fascinating portrait with an extraordinary expression of pride and vulnerability. Beautiful. His shoulders and eyes are made of freshwater mussels from Waterland ditches. On his cheek, a pink shell from a North Sea beach on marl from Limburg. The collar consists of oyster shells from the Wadden area. The lips of Veluwe sand, and the hairs of bog iron, sand from Drenthe and the Veluwe.
In February 2020, “Proud Rembrandt” was sold to a private collector, and it’s now hanging in a castle in the south of Limburg.

The creation of “Rembrandt rising from Dutch soil” started with the challenge of making a life-size version of my favourite self-portrait of Rembrandt using my medium. The result is the “Rembrandt Selfie”, marl, (mussel) shells, coal, polder soil and earth from various parts of the Netherlands on an oak panel of 12.7 cm by 15.5 cm, on an oak passe-partout in a wooden iPad tablet cover. Sold to a private collector in Amsterdam.
