Jim Mooijekind
Jim Mooijekind, born in 1992 in Haarlem, the Netherlands, is a renowned artist known for his dense, figurative paintings. He grapples with abstract themes such as emotions, psychology, and his place within the art world. Utilizing an autobiographical avatar alongside symbols and references, he symbolizes these abstract musings in a figurative, cartoonesque manner. In his art, the grim and fun, epic and mundane harmoniously coexist. Inspired by the candor of 90s and 2000s cartoons, Mooijekind employs simplification to tackle complex subjects and connect with like-minded thinkers. His art invites viewers into a world of profound contemplation, bridging emotions and philosophy through vivid imagery. Jim's artwork has been exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, Amsterdam, Vienna, Paris, and various other locations.
