‘Reine on Clay’ is a medium size contemporary mixed media on fabric-wrapped board figurative painting created by Dutch artist Casper Faassen in 2015.
Created during an extended trip to India and made of a thick 800 gram cardboard, this piece depicts an elegant woman, seen in profile. Casper used local clay with its original pigments of rust and greys for the background while the female figure is a silk screen print accented with hand-painted details.
Perfectly restrained, the painting strikes by the purity of its lines, the simplicity of its means and its contrasting colors. The woman, drawn with white outlines that stand out beautifully on the dark background, is looking down, pensively. The painting is set on a board wrapped in a black fabric, and is signed along the right side. With its nice proportions, exquisite subject and minimalist quality, this Dutch mixed media figurative portrait painting will bring a subtle sense of introspection to any home, whether placed above a credenza, console table or chest-of-drawers.

Casper Faassen, Reine on Clay
Netherlands  • 1975

Presentation

Multidisciplinary artist Casper Faassen (1975) lives and works in Leiden, the Netherlands, where his passion for creating has been inspired by the country's rich pictorial history. His artistic journey began at a young age and has since evolved, mixing painting and various forms of contemporary art.

After reconciling painting, studies and part-time jobs, Casper Faassen made the decisive decision in 2002 to devote himself entirely to his artistic career. Known for his innovative approach, Faassen continually explores new materials, techniques and artistic disciplines. Although his primary focus is photography, Faassen's foundation as a painter is evident in the way his photographic works are constructed from multiple semi-transparent layers.

Faassen's work is often categorized into three main themes: landscape photographyportrait photography and movement. Her ReCollection series, a critical exploration of ownership and objects, delves into the idea of collecting objects that have already been collected before. To emphasize the element of time, many of his works are finished with a distinct layer of crackle, further highlighting his interest in history and transformation.

Casper Faassen's works have been presented at numerous international art exhibitions and fairs, including prestigious events such as Paris Photo, AIPAD New York and Photo London. In 2007, Faassen was honored with the Talent of the Year award at the national ""Artist of the Year"" competition in the Netherlands, and in 2019 he won the prestigious ALPA award at Photo Basel. His works are part of private and public collections, thus consolidating his status as a leading contemporary artist.
