Steven Nederveen’s artwork deals with the passage of time, a theme stemming from his own practice of meditation. These moments of peaceful clarity lead the artist to draw connections between our natural environment and aspects of spirituality. Nederveen’s works appear timeless – with animals, figures, and graphic elements found in the dreamlike scenes, reflecting an incredible mystical vision. By blurring the lines between photograph and painting, Steven Nederveen develops a magical realism that inspires us to see the natural world with new eyes. Through distressing and aging his work he creates the sense of past and present; of struggle and transformation. A glass-like layer of resin coats each piece, enhancing the clarity of the image and reflecting the viewer into the work . Steven Nederveen studied fine art at Medicine Hat College and went on to receive a Bachelor of Design from the University of Alberta in 1995. His studio is currently based in Toronto. Nederveen’s work is featured internationally in galleries, art fairs, magazines, and many private collections.   Courtesy of Bau-Xi Gallery.
