​​Artist Statement / Bio


Roos (b. 1985) is a visual artist based in Duiven, The Netherlands. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2009 and has since developed a practice that combines refined technical skill with an ongoing search for stillness and presence.

Her paintings, rendered in a highly realistic manner, are less about representation than about atmosphere: moments of pause, the silence between words, where the women she draws inspiration from seem to briefly forget themselves. This search is not about final answers, but about process and attention, about creating images that invite reflection beyond the noise of daily life.

Roos has exhibited across the globe, with solo exhibitions in Australia and the United States. Her next solo presentation opens in December at Thinkspace Projects in Los Angeles.
