The period around Covid-19 (2020/2021) was characterized for many of us by periods of confinement, uncertainty and restrictions. There was a lot of time, but what to do with it? The idea of going on an imaginary journey arose in my studio. To my beloved 'Kellerjoch', high in the Austrian Alps. A beautiful place where it is pleasant to stay. A place that offers protection against the elements. By painting 'the hut' I was there. I also made a 24-part: Kellerjoch, 24 hours. Always the same composition, the hut in silhouette, in changing weather conditions. 24 paintings of 30x40cm. And by replicating the hut in miniature I could touch it. I also picked up another subject: landscape with house, often far away; hiding in the woods; blending into the forest. A place to feel safe? Or a place for reflection? The studio became a mountain hut.

As a visual artist I am always looking for ways to express my vision of the world around me. nature is a constant source of inspiration. I get new ideas during my walks through the high mountains and vast forests of Europe. Nature, especially the forest, also plays the leading role in my recent work. we behold a collection of trees, or at least what could pass for that. the 'trees' are not painted realistically. we also recognize shapes that suggest branches, but nowhere distinguish leaves. the emphasis is on the light source coming from one of the corners and the orange dots that seem to dance through the dark forest like fireflies. This light source is important: it tries to entice the viewer to come closer and become part of the work of art. the idea of two opposing sources of light and energy, the sun and fire, is an important element in my work. by juxtaposing these two elements, I invite the viewer to reflect on the role of these forces in our lives and our current ecosystem. it is an invitation to reflect on current events. The forest also plays a role in the series 'cabin in the woods'. we see sparsely lit houses, solitary in the forest. the light, turned on indoors, illuminates the windows. the trees seem to embrace the houses and an undefined light from above illuminates the structures. is it the moon, a spotlight? who knows. the scene is a call to reflection for the viewer; what could be happening behind the walls of the remote houses? I consciously do not provide answers in my works of art. I want to stimulate the viewer's imagination and give them the space to give their own meaning to what they see. For me, art is a way to ask questions and look for answers, not to give them. www.robregeer.nl
