In the series ‘Show Me the Way’, Robert van de Graaf explores how to navigate through this disturbing world with some guidance given by the wisdom and philosophies of life by two saints, Saint Thérèse of Lisieux and Saint Joan of Arc. He carried out research with a loose approach and drew inspiration from visits to their birthplaces in France.
Robert hopes to transmit and channel a glimpse of their wisdom and light into his artwork, while also trying to learn on a personal level during the creation process.
In his creative process he is working from internal reflection and contemplation towards outbursts of external expressions in his artworks. His artworks are also infused and inspired by his observations and documentation of their birthplaces and environments.
