Riekus’s work as a painter and sculptor grows out of

a fascination for craftsmanship, and an innate

knowledge of the singular properties of materials

and their transformations. His practice addresses

past and current interactions between humanity,

nature and culture. He mostly works on ongoing

projects, such as Resin Paintings, Ship of Fools,

Powerfigures, Captain of Freedom, Intrusive

Relationships, Hundred Souls (Zielen), Shamepoles,

Metal Paintings, Machines of Subjectivication.

Riekus was born in 1973, and now lives and works in

the Netherlands and France. He received his M.F.A.

(2000) and Meisterschüler (2001) from

Kunsthochschule Kassel, in Germany. His works are

featured in several private and public collections.
