Inspirational People: Part 2: Steven Nederveen on Images. 5 February 2011. of my work has to do with revealing a radiance that resides within all things, sort of a life force that seeps through the seams, hinting at what lies underneath."Steven Nederveen begins with an abstract painting, adds a digitally aged photograph using an intricate transfer method, then finishes with a glassy coating of resin to create his ethereal works of art. His chosen materials and methods produce hybrids of representation and abstraction, his vision driven by his deep connection to nature. Nederveen draws inspiration from his experiences outdoors and through meditation, allowing him to coax the "radiance that resides within all things." Glowing orbs and shimmering lights appear from deep within the work and represent the supernatural; "...I am allowing light to come through from underneath, as if revealing other worlds." Nederveen has exhibited in solo and group shows across North America and Europe. His works are regularly included in the Toronto International Art Fair and have been featured in numerous art and design publications. He currently lives and works in Toronto.Estimate: $4,000-6,000
