The artist’s philosophy
Melle Bloemen's philosophy unfolds as a poignant tale of the human condition. His work serves as a mirror for the viewer, reflecting the sometimes painful transformation of individuals deviating from their true selves. He investigates the roots of these changes, driven by fear, greed, and societal standards of beauty in the modern world.
His artworks challenge the viewer to contemplate the choices we make and their impact on our authentic selves. Through the subtle dance of charcoal, paint, graphite, ink and leaf metal, he calls for introspection and encourages a deeper connection with the true nature of the individual amidst the tumultuous world we live in.
