Matter is not in reality what it appears to be.

Visual artist Michael Bom (Cape Town, SA) lives and works in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Observations of natural phenomena; their rhythms and movements are the starting point for his work.

Michael works across different mediums in which he explores his interest in reflection, movement and structure.

Abstraction in the 4th dimension

I apply the screen print medium in a pure minimal way; by shifting, turning, overlapping the layers I achieve expressions of energy and movement which is an inherent aspect in my work. Each print is a monoprint and therefore completely unique. This is part of a series of around 14 different pieces.

5 days of rain - 2E

In the summer of 2021 I undertook a research of the reflection, movement and rhythm on large water surfaces. I made sketches on location on beaches and lakes. During these observations, there are moments that I experience as ‘magical’. The energy of such magical moments inspired me in creating these new works.


Fragments of Reality

In 2021 I started a project which dealt with a research into the paintings Piet Mondriaan made in Zeeland during 1908-1915.
My interest was in Piet Mondriaan’s use of colour combinations, his method of brush application and the expression of light, rhythym and movement.

Open studio 2022

Last year I started a project which dealt with a research into the paintings Piet Mondriaan made in Zeeland. My interest was in his use of colour combinations, method of brush application and expression of light, rhythm and movement. The constantly changing play of colour and movement of the natural elements on the coast was my subject matter.
