This work I made during Sculpta Arnhem 2016 @bartnijboer #itmoves #rizoom
As you will see in my post this week, I make kinetic machines that resemble plant or animal like movements. I like bring together a natural flow and a linear way of constructing. These images are from a blueprint on canvas. I see this drawing as a work in itself. This machine was never build. @bartnijboer #blueprint #machine #naturalmachine #kinetic #drawing #rizoomtakeover #bartnijboer
“Hello everybody, I am Bart Nijboer and I’m taking over Rizoom for this week.⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣My main practice is in kinetic objects and installations, which I will show you these following days. I’m living and working in Arnhem, where I studied Fine Art at ArtEZ, and graduated in 2014.
I’m fascinated by the little things in life and try to capture these elements where I experience true nature, into my sculptures. ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣The color I choose reminds me of the mountain air, when mist conceals the trees and rocks and give them a mysterious blue.”⁣ ⁣@bartnijboer ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣#rizoom #takeover #89 #bartnijboer #008CA6⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣We are an open and experimental platform for involved artists from The Netherlands.

Thanks @_rizoom , it was really nice to get this opportunity! Last work I want to share with you is “Sending birthday wishes from a stranger”,2019 • •I printed 13 birthday cards, all of them had one character of the word “Gefeliciteerd” on the front (“Gefeliciteerd” is the Dutch word for “Congratulations”). I added the address of a friend (who was almost birthday), a poststamp and a small letter with the question if the person who finds the card could please post it before the birthday party of this friend. They were also asked to write down personal birthday wishes for him. Three cards made it to the birthday party. (keep an eye on my website www.derkmuller.com). Soon I’ll do an update and add the photo’s of those cards! BYEEEE LOVE❤️ #birthday #concept #art #send #mail #derkmiiller
“Derk Müller”, 2019 -plastic Albert Heijn bag • A work of art, a self-portrait, a signature, a tattoo, a bag, a brand and more ... •first photo //the artwork •second photo //a tattoo of this artwork • •I love this work, it’s shameless. I alway interpreted the logo of Albert Heijn as my own initials. All I had to do is add another line to the ‘h’ to make it an ‘m’. Result: dm • •What can I say? Thanks @albertheijn for the inspiration ❤️ @derkmiiller
“Photoboard”, 2017 📸📸📸📸📸📸📸📸 There is a big chance you know what a photo board is, and an even bigger change you used it. You can't ignore it, you need to take a funny picture. The holes are in it to put your head through and that is exactly what it's made for. In this work it's more questioned because there is no photo to hide behind. And yet everyone does it ... • On the first picture you see the artwork, all the rest is documentation.. More documentation at www.derkmuller.com @derkmiiller #photo #board #photoboard #contemporaryart #rizoom #derkmiiller #documentation #thanks #bye #enjoy
Thank god it’s friday! Don’t forget to eat your fruitsss🤙🏼 “Grape Tree”, 2019 •Grape branch •Plastic grape container • •This is one of those works that looks simple to make, but take a lot of creativity to make it happen. (the grapes where nice and sweet) #grapetree #wine #art #derkmiiller #sweet #rizoom @derkmiiller thanks again 📸@koen.kievits
“Moving box”, 2019 • NEWEST WORK I have been fascinated by a moving box for a long time. It is a special object that only shows itself when moving. What happens if this box gets all the attention it deserves, its heavy burden would be rewarded. In a long way to document this object I got help from Koen, he shot these beautiful images that conceal and reveal the optical illusion. Don’t trust your eyes, don’t trust your brain... 🎥@koen.kievits 📦@derkmiiller ❤️@_rizoom
"Streetlife", 2018 These objects are often exhibited as an installation of several copies. I've been making them since 2018 and can't stop doing it, it's nice to see how much a beer can looks like a spray can and vice versa. •I don't know what else I can tell about it, I just love them... I also like beers.. and graffiti • #art #graffiti #latenight #streetlife #object #sculpture
Today the weather is beautiful, it's nice and sunny and no rain so far... It's time to sit and enjoy the beauty of life on a bench in the park. I made the work "Bench on canvas" for the art-manifestation Wereldwijd de Heerlijkheid, in Hemmen. I used the bench that was already in beautiful surroundings and placed a white canvas under it. Through this action, the bench was isolated from its environment and received all the attention it deserved. It was a beautiful painting, without using any paint! #bench #sit #enjoy #nature #landart #contemporary #rizoom #derkmiiller #mooi #green #hemmen
"Vijf en Twintig Euro" is an installation that consists of a Euro pallet and a stack of posters of twenty five euros, the posters are just as large as the pallet. Usually I start working from a fascination for a daily event, I take it with me in my studio and there I start to dissect it. For this work I was fascinated by how we deal with money, and with the Europallet…. Remember the last time you paid €25 for an Europallet? • •1poster design •2video i made for researche purpose •3actual artwork •4researche •5researche • •again thanks @koen.kievits for this amazing photo of the artwork! #euro #derkmiiller #art #economy #followthemoney #forsale #insight #europallet #shipping #2019 #€ #25
