Hi, my name is Malou Zuidema. I'm an Illustrator, animator, arts worker from the Netherlands and currently based in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. I studied a four year Bachelor of Fine Art in Education at the Amsterdamse Hogeschool voor de Kunsten.
In my artwork I use pen, ink, collage, as well as mono-printing techniques, resulting layered artwork. Combining these techniques I try to create little worlds, landscapes, strange characters and funny surroundings.
I like to work with the coincidence of the material on paper. Let the accident trigger and inspire ideas, so that just one line turns out to be a wonderful tree or a splash of ink is a world full of little fish. Or even a left over bit of paint on paper is a fascinating landscape!
