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 that questions the normality of mental health struggles: "t's a struggle every day to be me. I wanna be normal. But what is normal anyway?"

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