Bart Nijboer (born 1990) creates dynamic sculptures and images trough which he explores the relationship between the human and nature. The experience of material, perception of the world, and the physical human condition come together in the dynamic sculptures that he creates. The human body serves as our benchmark for measuring the world. Trough this the naked human body is portrayed as pure, natural, elemental, and rational. In his words: “The experience of the world -however strange- cannot be seen as separate from our own body”

Nijboer exhibits his work both nationally and internationally. In 2014, he completed his Fine Arts studies at ArtEZ Academy of Fine Arts in Arnhem, where his current studio is also located. His work Naked Skin is on display in the permanent collection of the Het Depot sculpture gallery in Wageningen, and several of his sculptures can be seen in public outdoor spaces. Nijboer has received two grants from the Mondriaan Fund to further develop his artistic practice.
