max vrijdags

"we found each other wounded by life, 

we stay together to heal those wounds,"

"Max Vrijdags literally sketches the story of the vulnerable human being. This artist examines situations that we know but are not always allowed, willing or able to acknowledge. Max Vrijdags' work is also characterized by themes such as love, death, loneliness and sorrow. power and abuse of power, blackmail and destruction, life and survival. They are, as it were, universal situations or events processed like a diary of memories, dreams and fears. Max Vrijdags shows the viewer in his recognizable way of working that his psychological processing on paper or canvas does not have to be purely academic or "beautiful" and that it quickly gets to the point in sober style without much details about place and time. "

Max mainly looks for old images that he uses or reuses directly or indirectly and which are sometimes partly visible in his work because that is how he sees the images when he looks at the world.
