The work of Berend Strik (Nijmegen 1960) is situated in a twilight zone in terms of discipline. The basis consists of photos (either found or taken by Strik) which have been modified with threads, gauze and other materials. Berend Strik • Thixotropy takes these embroidered photos as a point of entry for grasping the meaning, motives and themes of his entire oeuvre. Texts by Berend Strik himself and by others analyze and interpret a range of different perspectives, aspects and strategies. These texts are interlaced with seductive visual material so that the reader can enjoy this playful overview of the particular visual idiom and layered quality of Berend Strik’s oeuvre.
