January Inspiration: Untamed

“Deep End” is the name of the most recent series of paintings by Dutch artist Joachim van der Vlugt. In this series, the abstraction of his previous landscapes gives way to the clearly recognisable pattern of foam-laden waves.

With these paintings as the starting point, this collection invites you to discover a selection of works around the same theme. From the troughs of the waves to the depths of the abysses, these works bear witness to the ambivalent feelings and emotions that the ocean exerts on us, a source of both fear and fascination, synonymous with frontiers and an opening to the unknown.
