Fien Brakkee   ( 1999,  Rotterdam,  Netherlands )
Over the course of building my artistic practice, I have formed my art to be a hand to hold: my work has always been a place of feeling, thinking, reflection, and philosophizing, about the world around me and also the world within me.
I work mostly conceptual. I move through different mediums with a watchful eye - always trying to find the right way to express the right thing. Through drawings, collages, performances, installations, video works, photography, poetry and soundscapes, various subjects have throughout the years appeared in many different shapes and forms.
