Jolande van Lith (*1966 ’s-Hertogenbosch) studied photography and creative design.
 In 1986 she became established as an independant photographer.
 Her work already portraying her interest in the experience
surrounding death and religion. The dialogue and inner struggle of the human mind.
This resulted in successful exhibitions in The Netherlands and abroad.


In 1994 she withdrew from photography and began the search for other art forms.
New form of expressions; like abstracts in acrylic on linnen.
After that discovery Jolande started building her pictures up in layers using
various disciplines and techniques.


 “ I practice an autodidact freedom in the use of materials,
remaining uninhibited and unlimited in my technique.
My work offers the possibility to portray depth and structure.
 Through the use and combination of unusual materials and colours surprising opportunities arise.
 I challenge myself by working with different objects,
 however I purposely chose never to work with brush or pencil to create structure and texture in my paintings.
Authenticity in simplicity is the guarantee of my work method.

My fascination surrounding death and deterioration is what I try to communicate in all my art forms.
Emotions such as pain and sadness are palpable in the absence of figurative representations.
 First impressions are often deceiving; the layers of the soul bare a dreamy darkness..
I want to create the origin of poetic abstracts without subject; peace in chaos."


As a result her work is generated from the origin of pure emotion.
Jolande Van Lith’s raw and uncensored passion haunts her work;
it’s intensity casting a mysterious powerfull shadow that is uniquely hers.
 Each piece is an original offer of the artists soul.

     Jolande lives and works in 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands._
You can find her work in collections all over the world.
