At the end of October, the first monograph by the frequently acclaimed Dutch artist Suzanne Jongmans (1978, Hoeven, the Netherlands) is published by Lannoo Publishers. This book is a complete overview of her oeuvre, in which the traditions of painting, medieval costume design and circular economy come together.                                                                                                     Suzanne Jongmans creates photographs that echo the old masters of the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries, but with a modern twist: she crafts intricate costumes using recycled plastics, old blankets and used packaging. We can see references and winks to Rembrandt, Vermeer, Velásquez, Van Eyck and Rogier van der Weyden. But that is only one aspect of her work that revolves around tranquility, timelessness and beauty. Jongmans uses simple packaging and disposable materials such as foam and rubber with which she meticulously designs the exquisite costumes for her models – a subtle critique of our consumer society. And so layer after layer accumulates in her oeuvre, contrast after contrast. The result is a seriers of serene, tranquil photographs that balance between classic and modern, light and dark, life experience and childlike innocence. Suzanne Jongmans also made commissioned work for Valentino / Moncler.
