About my artwork

Daan Noppen (Arnhem NL, 1977 – lives and works in Amsterdam) studied at the Design Academy in Eindhoven, where he graduated with the short movie FUBAR. After getting professional experience as a graphic designer and director, winning several awards and receiving several nominations, he now concentrates on creating moving images and photography.In the work of Daan Noppen linear worlds collapse with non-linear worlds creating quantum thoughts about our illusions and their probabilities. Projecting past, present and future in the now as one image he projects light on a reality that we normally cannot see with the naked eye.

In 2008 the documentary  ‘Limpiando Ventanas’  (a collaboration with Monica Hernandez) was on exhibition in ‘Museo Ciudad de Mexico’, (Mexico DF, Mexico) and Arte Americas in (Miami, USA). The photography series ‘Opus II’ and ‘Clouds we are’, exhibited in Arti08 (The Hague) are recently awarded with 7 nominations for the International Photography Awards.
