Description
The Dutch coast is on the edge of a huge drowned land: Doggerland. Due to global warming, more and more ice melted further north and slowly but surely the area was flooded. About 8,000 years ago, the water stopped at the precursors of our current beaches. In his book"Orakel" the Dutch writer Thomas Olde Heuvelt refers to this drowned land and the disappeared animals that inhabited this land. An ancient mammoth god plays an important role in the story. This inspired the artist to create this mammoth. Text fragments from the book that inspired her are woven into the artwork.
Presentation
Artist Statement:
Letters and texts have always been a source of inspiration and wonder for Elise Eekhout.
When you think about it, it's a very fascinating fact: text is nothing but a series of characters in a row, to which we have assigned meanings. We can experience a whole range of feelings and emotions just by looking at those signs.
Eekhout combines this fascination of letters and texts with the images she creates in her art. Her work is layered and contains several types of information, including about herself, her feelings and thoughts. She likes works of art that have a story to tell that is not completely 'finished'. “If you can see and retell the story right away, it's boring. There has to be something for the viewer to discover."
Before entering the professional artworld, Elise Eekhout has been a successful graphic designer for over 20 years. She started her own graphic design company whilst studying at St. Joost Art School (Breda, The Netherlands).
At the start of the corona lockdown in the spring of 2020, Eekhout decided to make her dream come true and become an artist. After only one year she managed to break through internationally with exhibitions in India.
