Raymond van den Berg

14 July 2026

Raymond van den Berg creates work that sits somewhere between figuration and abstraction, drawing faces and figures with ink in ways that feel both urgent and dreamlike. His pieces balance high contrast and movement, where a portrait might dissolve into expressionist mark-making, or a head emerges from layered, almost chaotic elements. There's a rawness to how he works—whether through ink, mixed media, or other approaches—that makes you feel the energy of his hand. The range of titles across his body of work suggests someone interested in how we see, hear, and understand one another, and the sometimes strange space between what's visible and what we imagine.
