Babs Haenen
Renowned Dutch visual artist Babs Haenen is recognized for ceramics seamlessly blending color, line, and form. Her works fuse abstract painting with natural motifs like rippling water and landscapes. Using colored porcelain slabs, Haenen creates vibrant, organic vessels with mesmerizing inner dynamism. Her process involves layering pigments to shape delicate porcelain ribbons, skillfully folded, cut, and sculpted into distinctive vessels. Haenen’s artistry evolved from vertical vessels to intricate tabletop landscapes and Scholar’s Rocks. With a dance background and Gerrit Rietveld Academy education, her talent and enduring ceramic contributions are recognized by awards like the 2020 van Achterbergh Prize.
