Artistic creation, and more broadly, culture, is like a bottomless pit: we can never claim to have mastered anything or be satisfied with what we know!
Born in The Hague, the Netherlands, Angela Evers has been living in France since 1979. She studied visual arts and creative mediated psychopedagogy in the Netherlands (and later in France), before becoming interested in psychoanalysis. With thirty-five years of experience in the fields of art, psychiatry and helping relationship or visual communication, Angela is a multi-talented artist. Through her painting, she approaches the human figure in a physical way - the body, its movement, and its gestures - and in a spiritual way, by tapping into its psyche. In doing so, she connects intimately with the other and with the world. Her figures stand out, they seem to float, reflected and marked in the materials, and the shadows detach from the artist's compositions and are the product of interconnections, encounters and happenstance.
Angela is fascinated by painters of the Enlightenment, the colours of a Mondrian or the spontaneous gesture of a Van Gogh. The artist draws her inspiration from the culture and history of her homeland. With this comes the influence of northern country landscapes, grey and heavy skies and stretches of sand. Angela Evers finds the ideal expression of humanity in these stripped spaces that depict loss and the ephemeral. Using only broken colours and natural tones, she uses a "blue-grey-beige" that escapes definition and stands as a symbol of harmony but also carries with it a melancholic dimension. The artist expands her creative playing field by practicing a wide variety of techniques such as acrylics, collage, paper canvas, sand, glue, and coating that gives her works' figures a rich palette of emotions.
