My name is Kelly Kerssens (1981). I live and work in Amsterdam.

 

In my collage works I use pictures and patterns that I cut out of magazines, or copies of these, which I revised. The works show different images, fused together, sometimes combined with text. They are sober, playful and critical.  I do not only use paper in my works, but also paint, wood, styrofoam, plastic, fabric and found objects.

​

All my works are about my inner world, which is full of symbolism and childhood memories. Born as an idealistic dreamer, 

I like to hide in my dream world, in search of a connection with that fine line in between from where my work flows.                       

 

On this website I will show a selection of my works, made over the past years. You can also find some of my poems on this website.
