Joram Roukes is a dutch artist, producing large oilpaintings. The first time I saw his work I was immediately blown away by his innerworld. The way he put things together is kind of magical because your eyes will fool you. It’s humourous, rough, but sensitive and touching at the same time, like a chaotic dream that has been rearranged. You have to see the paintings in real life to experience the layers and discover the depth of the paint, while a little voice in your mind is asking you “How did he do this?”
