Sebastiaan Bremer
Dutch artist
Sebastiaan Bremer (born 27 June 1970) is a Dutch artist who lives and works in New York City.
Bremer turns photographs, found or snapped, of himself and his family into trippy, dusty memories that reveal the subconscious and the real world in one blink of an eye.
He invents a poetic braille made up of text, personal symbols and ghostly shapes that, when integrated with their complex grounds, disappear again, buried in a sea of suspended dots. By slowly and laboriously painting on top of quickly taken snapshots, Bremer slows down time to render an interior landscape.[1]
Work
Born in Amsterdam, Bremer attended the open studio program at the Vrije Academie in The Hague from 1989 until 1991.[2] During his early years he meticulously reproduced personal photographs in paint.
He received the Werkbeurs Grant from FBKVB in the Netherlands and moved to New York in 1992 where he began to work primarily in black and white, reemphas
