Johan Moorman - Geometric Flower (I)

Johan Moorman (1979) developed his artistic practice in the dynamic city of Eindhoven. In the nineties he began as a graffiti artist, and since then he has continuously experimented, without limiting himself to one specific style or medium. His artistic development was shaped in part by the technologically progressive environment in which he grew up and by his later studies at the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. These influences have strongly defined his outlook on art and his way of working. Moorman draws inspiration from diverse sources, from arcade games, M.C. Escher and Lego to De Stijl, Pop Art and the Memphis Group. In his work these references come together in a timeless visual language, in which moments seem to be frozen in an adventurous, playful setting. The interaction between objects, shapes and spaces invites the viewer to step into an imaginary universe. His multidisciplinary approach to creativity is expressed in the way he weaves together different styles and influences. From the recognizable aesthetics of classic arcade games to avant-garde design: Moorman combines elements of Anti-Design with a sense of elegance, thereby creating spatial worlds that transcend the boundaries of conventional visual language.
