[English] Lennart Creutzburg (1994, Breda, NL) is a Dutch(-Indonesian) mixed-media artist currently based in Helsinki, Finland. In the summer of 2019 he graduated with merit from the Bachelor of Fine Arts and Education in Tilburg, the Netherlands. The years after graduation he showed his work in various art spaces in and around Tilburg as well as internationally. Together with other artists in his studio, he established a residency place in an old leather factory in Dongen in the Netherlands, called Vrouw Muskens. From January 2022 Creutzburg started his two year Master in Fine Arts in Sculpture at the University of the Arts in Helsinki, Finland.
My work circulates around a framework of ontological questions where humans as biological machines, the creation of one's own logic, constructed self-images as well as dominant processes of conditioning and nurturing are particularly explored. The expression of inner worlds is always pursued, in which my own psyche is treated as the main medium. My oeuvre currently expresses itself in the form of mixed-media installations, sculptures and performances that emerge from self-analysis and research where each work can be seen in its broader relationship to the other.
[Dutch] Lennart Creutzburg (1994, Breda, NL) is een Nederlands(-Indische) mixed-media kunstenaar die momenteel gevestigd is in Helsinki, Finland. In de zomer van 2019 studeerde hij met genoegen af aan de Bachelor of Fine Arts and Education in Tilburg. De jaren na zijn afstuderen toonde hij zijn werk in verschillende expositieruimten in en rond Tilburg alsook internationaal. Samen met andere kunstenaars richtte hij in zijn atelier een residentieplaats op in een oude leerfabriek in Dongen, genaamd Vrouw Muskens. Vanaf januari 2022 is Creutzburg begonnen aan zijn tweejarige Master in Fine Arts in sculpture aan de University of the Arts in Helsinki, Finland.
Mijn werk circuleert rond een raamwerk van ontologische vraagstukken waarbij de mens als biologische machine, de creatie van een individu's logica, geconstrueerde zelfbeelden en dominante processen van conditionering en nurturing in het bijzonder worden onderzocht. De uitdrukking van innerlijke werelden is altijd het uitgangspunt, waarin mijn psyche wordt beschouwd als het belangrijkste medium. Mijn oeuvre uit zich momenteel in de vorm van mixed-media installaties, sculpturen en performances die voortkomen uit zelfanalyse en onderzoek waarbij elk werk kan worden gezien in zijn bredere relatie tot de ander.
