Steven Nederveen, one of Bau-Xi gallery’s artists, is doing a fascinating Canada 150 project, in Iceland. And if you’re not following the story, you could start now on Instagram #NederveenInIceland.
Nederveen is explaining Canada’s “Mystical Landscape” in Iceland, focusing on Ocean Crossing (below: 30×60″ mixed media, 2017). It was commissioned by the Canadian Embassy in Reykjavík.
Bau-Xi Gallery describes Nederveen’s work as blurring the lines between photograph and painting, creating a magical realism. He distresses and ages the work and coats each piece with a glass-like layer of resin, enhancing the clarity of the image and reflecting the viewer into the work.

Love your work! We’re looking for more artists to feature on our growing canadian based artbwebsite for selling prints and paintings! Contact if interested or just check us out!
Thanks for stopping by. This is a curated site, so none of it is my own work (unfortunately!) It’s all from artists or exhibitions I feature. Good luck with your site.
Love the project & Nederveen’s style!
Love that a major gallery is having fun on Instagram too.
I agree!
