Anja Jager, dochter van het Noorden — Veenkoloniaal Museum
Curatorial Note
About the Exhibition: Anja Jager, dochter van het Noorden
Her work revolves around women, cycles, beauty and ancient stories and truths. She paints women back to the centre of life, as midwives at the beginning and mourners at the end, and as an eternal soft strength.
Her paintings work on two levels: a refined visible image and deeper values and old symbols beneath it. Visitors also learn how she trained, working with fairy tales in classic egg tempera before turning to oil paint for its richness.
