About the artist
Rik Dijkhuizen (1988) is a visual artist whose multidisciplinary work reflects on mental health in a hyper-individualistic society. In his scenographic installations and low fiction narratives, he uses numerous (personal) references and connotations to create sanctuaries for wellbeing and collective embodiment; convincing topos that invite and call for reflection. These places are not quite of this world but feel strangely familiar and are situated somewhere between reality and imagination. Rik studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy Amsterdam, and Art History and Aesthetics at the University of Amsterdam.
