Natasja Mabesoone's Art Style

Natasja Mabesoone creates graphic works using a combination of the seventeenth-century 'vernis mou' printing technique, monotypes, and drawings. She incorporates stencils, markers, and glitter to blend the aesthetics of decoration and craft. Mabesoone's associative and poetic visual language reflects themes of sensuality, sexuality, powerlessness, and aggressiveness.

Her work explores notions of femininity, the subversiveness of the cute, and domesticity as a potential form of resistance. 

In each work a different protagonist is staged using seemingly ingenuous depictions of everyday highs and lows. The narrative in my work does not necessarily require a plot. Rather, the narrative potential lies in the imagery, the materiality and the underlying cultural associations or imaginary and etymological backgrounds
