About Fiona Lutjenhuis (Zevenaar, 1991) lives and works in Amsterdam. She studied at ArtEZ University of the Arts, Arnhem (2010-2014) and since 2022 she has been a resident at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam.
Fiona Lutjenhuis makes illustrations, publications, paintings and animations in which she makes the religious heritage of her youth visible: from installations to artist books and from commissioned work to self-initiated projects.
Her speculative imagery fits perfectly into the contemporary discourse about a post-positivist society. In every image we can feel the humour and courage to delve into worlds without strongholds. In a sense you could say that she is ahead of us in being intimate with supernatural beliefs and also everyday knowledge.
