Arjan van Helmond

home

indispensible theatre for most of our traumas

treasure

my wife and kids

fame

my favorite tv series in the 80s

engine

Coffee, black and strong

wisdom

I hope to reach some at one point even though I’m as stupid as a painter

heroes

My neighbour Jaap, who rescued my daughter from drowning.

time journey

Painting is a journey in time, or more a space where time is crystallized, or materialized. One can’t go back in time, but one can slow it down, or even stop it for a moment

sacrifice

No one said it would be easy

vice

laziness

cats/dogs

Oh don’t start me on this one. You’ll understand once you’ve met Gaston la Gaffe, my 5 year old, 30 kilo, stinking, disobedient, lazy and fat but terribly sweet and funny Bassethound.
