about me
Profile: Wilko van Oostrum

Hi, I'm Wilko van Oostrum from Leverkusen Germany

Born in the Netherlands, I have lived in Germany for many years, but the Dutch way of seeing, characterized by the wide, open landscapes and the characteristic cloud formations, has never let go of me and is clearly reflected in my work.
This inspiration runs through both my landscape photographs and my still lifes, in which the tradition of the Dutch painters of the 17th and 18th centuries is reflected. At the same time, I refer to the photography of the 1920s, whose timeless aesthetic also has an influence on my work. My photographs are classic, but never boring, because they strike a balance between calm and tension, simplicity and complexity.
My work strengthens the connection between tradition and modernity, offering collectors and art lovers the opportunity to discover a unique and authentic artistic point of view that is both historically rooted and contemporarily relevant.
Photography allows me to share my creative vision with others and to socialize. If you are interested in my work that captures moments with depth and meaning, I am happy to be of service. Let's discover the world together through the eyes of photography.
