Rijk Willem
Intern / Photographer
Rijk de Wilde de Ligny is an artist based in Utrecht, exploring the complex and surreal nature of memory through analogue photography and collage. His work captures the raw, imperfect beauty of film light leaks, grain, and textureevoking nostalgia and a deep connection to the past.
Collages serve as his visual storytelling tool, blending reality and fiction through cutting, burning, and rearranging images mirroring how memories are fragmented and reconstructed. By creating dreamlike narratives, he invites viewers to reflect on their own experiences, bridging the past and present into something new and meaningful.
