Description +-

All of Heijwegen's paintings are self-portraits; so they act as a depiction of mental health from the source of the artist's mind directly. Heijwegen accompanies this piece with text, illustrating the artwork's relation to their mental breakdown and the overwhelming thoughts that simultaneously manifest: "This is THE moment of my mental breakdown. It felt like my brain was exploding and like there were thousands of ants running around in my head. It was scary and all I could do was wait and protect my head with my hands. That's why a hand can be seen."

Mariken Heijwegen  

"All my work comes from unknown places in my head" -Mariken Heijwegen

Mariken Heijwegen began a career in fashion, studying it in the Netherlands, but transferred their skills into the fine art world. Creating works that act as a depiction of the inner mind, Heijwegen seeks to teach students to reach their own feelings through artistic creation. The artist creates self-portraits as a translations of their own mental health journey. During a dark and mentally tough experience, Heijwegen produced a self-portrait every day to reflect the feelings that emerged from panic attacks, fear, anxiety and insecurities. They argue that the painting of these visuals is what saved their mental health; allowing for a solution of acceptance and understanding. With the aim to normalise discussions on mental health, Heijwegen sees strength in vulnerability and important visibility within chaos.

Donation +-

Based on our agreement with the artist, 15% of the pre-VAT price excluding frames will be donated to support the World Federation for Mental Health.
