Although trained in traditional painting techniques, Dutch artist Joris Kuipers isn’t satisfied with the constraints of a rectangular frame or pieces that sit stationary on the wall. His undulating, cloud-like installations appear to float and flutter as if a clump of giant, colorful autumn leaves have been tossed upwards and frozen in mid-air.
In his ongoing series Jardin Suspendus and In Bloom, Kuipers invokes the atmosphere of gardens. Floral-like shapes overlap, swell, and skitter in site-specific installations, whether hanging from the ceiling or flaring up from pedestals. Installed on stem-like supports, the vibrant forms playfully evade a single definition, taking on the organic, blossoming quality of flowers, coral, or lichen.
Kuipers was recently commissioned by U.K.-based agency ArtLink for a series of works in red niches that will eventually be installed in a new cruise ship. Find more on the artist’s website and Instagram.
