UNLEASHING REALITY
“Isabella Werkhoven’s paintings remind you of film stills; her depictions keep roaming through your mind – even long after you’ve laid eyes on them. Her images are not only ‘fetching’, but also create a certain tension. Something’s brewing. An atmosphere that’s not clearly present, but there nevertheless: unnameable, subcutaneous.”Benno Tempel, currently director at Gemeentemuseum Den Haag
