Floor Meijers (1980) creates portraits in various media.
Her recent works are composed of layers of photography, painting (watercolor/gouache) and digital image manipulation.
The starting point usually is a photographic image. In addition to portraits of the people around her, she uses images from various sources such as dating apps, family archives and news photography.
The portraits in advertisements, on displays in public spaces, on your phone, are ubiquitous and form an inexhaustible source of raw material to work with.
Manual (analog) and digital image editing are techniques to abstract and re-appropriate the portraits.
In addition to the individual portraits, she works on long-term documentary photography projects.
Through the phenomenon of repetition these series emphasize the awareness of the viewer's gaze in specific personal relationships.
