Additional Information

Reformation by Jeska Valk 

An internal exploration has ignited a sense of freedom and rebirth.  Represented by liquid gold in my work, its malleable form searches for new shape.

This element is used to connect my thirst for experience and the love I have found for The Renaissance (French word Rebirth).   I have been enamoured with this period since being exposed to its beauty.

As my work continues to show homage to my family and that of my mother, the link between the knowledge she has shared with me especially of this period will forever hold in strength.

Together, we travelled to Europe and the UK so she could fuel my desire for the arts, highlighting the Dutch Masters from the 16th & 17th Century.

Items incorporated in my work from my travels with my mother.

The lace depicted in this piece was acquired from Leiden, Holland (my family’s homeland) by a local fabric maker. Just steps away the Valk windmill stands prominent in the centre of town, symbolising the Valk family from the 15th Century.

While the backdrop is a 16th century room divider, part of a collection at the great, Elizabethan building, Burghley House in Stamford, England.

Northern European paintings of the Renaissance (14th-17th Century) was typically characterized by oil paints, realism and the ability to hide subtle details, that reveal a deeper meaning beyond the surface.
