Jane van Bostelen

Big Picture Contemporary Stand: 407
Jane van Bostelen is a British artist, originally from the UK and now living and working in the Netherlands. After many years as a graphic designer, Jane began developing a fine art photographic practice that brings together her long-standing passion for art, colour and shape.

Always fascinated by detail, and influenced by her background in graphic design, Jane uses macro photography to explore flowers up close.


The closer she looks, the more she wants to simplify, isolating a small part of a flower and allowing its form to become the focus. Immersing herself in these details, her focus is drawn deeper, discovering hidden forms, natural curves, textures, transparency, colour and the beauty within them. Her work balances precision with organic softness, revealing fragile forms that hold a sense of strength through carefully considered light and composition.


Looking closely, being present and seeing something familiar in a different way are at the heart of her work.
