Artist Statement – Maarten Poelhorst
Maarten Poelhorst is a graphic designer dedicated to preserving the value of analog work in an increasingly digital world. He combines digital and analog techniques to create tangible designs. His research begins in the streets, where he photographs and observes with an objective eye. He draws inspiration from subcultures that exist outside the norm, such as graffiti, football supporters, and gabbers. His style emerges as a reaction to the subject and revolves around authenticity and experience. By blending physical and visual elements, he creates work that goes beyond the screen and invites the viewer to engage with it firsthand.
