FRANCES VAN DAMMEN

Mysteries Series

Frances van Dammen paints exquiste grassy forest floors, Victorian in detail with a thick coat of resin to seal in the paintings in another world all together. The paintings are highly detailed illusions of a contrived reality. They refer simultanously to photorealism and classicism with their preoccupation with clarity and conventional formality.
New to Oedipus Rex, Frances van Dammen lives and works in Hamilton.
