Dutch contemporary urban artist Michiel Nagtegaal uses vibrant colours and bold patterns, as a visual language of happiness and joy. His art reflects his optimistic faith in the world.
Art is often percieved as ‘’difficult’ and pretentious. Many art is about suffering. About fear, loss and other negative issues. And although beauty can be found in dark places, I feel art has the responsibility to tell a positive story more often.
