Roos Schneijderberg
Roos Schneijderberg (1977) is an emerging multidisciplinary artist with a mature conceptual practice. Her highly varied, powerful, yet serene works create an atmosphere of tranquility that nonetheless contains a palpable tension and invite the viewer to encounter the Self often with a combination of bold simplicity and subtle, disruptive fragility—frequently by adding a broken mirror element. Central to her work are introspective creations that are specifically tailored to the location or situation—whether temporary or permanent, large or small. She plays with the viewer’s personal perception - conscious and unconscious - and translates psychological states into spatial works, making the invisible inner world tangible and physically experiential.
Her work includes installations, scenography, land art, sculptures, conceptual furniture, mixed media objects, videos, paintings, photography, and poems. Her background in advertising and psychology has laid the foundation for her conceptual approach and the emotion- and psyche-based themes in her work. Her style is sophisticated yet bold presented with some serious lightness. Introspection, femininity, and a refined abrasive interaction between imperfection and radical aestheticism are recurring elements in her oeuvre.
