Work from the series 'Smallheads23', a series of small versions of Jøken's 'Blockheads', cutouts painted on double plywood, covered with a high-gloss layer of resin epoxy. 26cm x 40cm x 3cm. The back of the work has a bright orange color, allowing an orange glow to be seen from behind the work.
Korneel Jeuken is a visual artist, cartoonist and illustrator. Under his alias Jøken he makes comic art paintings and drawings with a recognizable character. The 'Blockheads' that Korneel paints on the most diverse materials depict crazy characters but also the need to hide behind a mask as a being and to adopt a new identity. Jøken calls the work ' New Cubism' because he always had a fascination with the movement between the spatial and the flat surface. In his earlier work this led to abstract paintings and installations that architecturally depicted his inner world. It still plays a role in the current work because the figures in his world are often constructed from blocks. Yet he does not want to limit himself to blocks. The process of making must remain intuitive. Small sketches that arise in a stream of consciousness form the basis for paintings on wood, cardboard or canvas. Devils, rabbits, kings and skeletons, often dressed in a suit and tie, populate the colorful world of Jøken: an apparently cheerful whole of sleek madness... Korneel Jeuken (Venray NL 1975) trained at St. Joost Academy and the Piet Black Institute and exhibited at home and abroad. He draws current cartoons for the daily newspaper De Gelderlander
