Coat

by Monique van den Hout · Tholen, NL

The unifying factor in the diversity of Monique van den Hout's drawings is the expression of emotion. The medium is the raw, powerful energy of her lines. Through her own distinctive signature, she shapes human figures, achieving the desired expression through the use of human and animal characteristics and elements. The eyes, the gaze, and body language are central. Recurring themes in her work are freedom and connection—with yourself, with others. The search for these. Looking, both outward and inward.
