🎄 CHRISTMAS SPECIAL:
Join me for an Artist Talk followed by a seasonal nibble.
Structures en dérive / Unraveling Structures
🕓 Sunday, December 21
16.00h. to 18.00h.
(Costs: entrance fee)
📍 Fondation Fernet-Branca
2 rue du Ballon, Saint-Louis FR
Mariejon de Jong-Buijs’ work draws on the Dutch landscape tradition—shaped by her youth on farms and a study of the genre’s history. Her large canvases use saturated colors, geometric forms, repeating motifs, and folded surfaces to explore abstraction and geometric minimalism, inviting viewers to experience landscape as a process of perception and memory.
At Fondation Fernet-Branca, she presented iEXIST for the first time: a photographic installation of 730 images that translates the themes of process and perception from her painting into a new medium.
iExist is a recurring project restarted every two years. Each morning, she photographs the view from her bedroom window with her smartphone, creating a daily visual diary of fleeting connections to the world outside.
Without selfies, the images meditate on presence, time, existence, memory, and the impact of technology on identity, inviting reflection on both the artist’s life and that of the viewer.
