SANDRA BIEWERS
PASSION IN
THE BONES
She lives art as an obsession, a vital need to
continuously work on any and all surfaces and
supports. From graphism to oil painting through
fabric sculpture and as of late, jewellery, Sandra
explores the avenues of creation to infinity.
Her universe is a sweet mix of romanticism
and gothic art. Thus, when certain vintage
period inspirations give the right note to her
pencil strokes, other more burlesque elements
complete the canvas.
From classic pencil drawings on paper to
other two-dimensional surfaces, nothing stops
her. And it is in her studio Inktologolie Tattoo,
founded in 2010, that she fully expresses herself.
Sandra immortalises her works of art on human
skin using a line just as fine as it is delicate, in
black and white. Each pulsation of the needle
contributes to a story, in which sometimes even
a single dot can suffice.
Not only does this painter and draughtsman
completely invest himself in his creations, he also
becomes the link between this world and others.
The paintings are visual expressions of Samuel’s
emotions, creating a dreamlike universe made of
majestic curves, at once hypnotizing and enveloping.
His most recent project, “artificial nature,”
is based on the interaction between external
elements and his artwork. These canvases then
reveal a new organic, botanical or even underwater
world. Whether driven by his drawings,
frescoes, paintings or installations, Samuel has
the power to transmit a luminous and authentic
energy. And to limit himself exclusively to traditional
brushes and canvases would be too simple
because our artist also likes to experiment with
other materials such as wood engraving. New
works to be discovered soon.
