Just another day during the Lockdown when I started painting. Because of a bad Wifi signal I couldn't play my favourite playlist so I had to search some music in my cd library. I took out my all time favourite album of Dead Can Dance 'Into The Labyrinth' and started painting. In my earlier days I used to play this album a lot. Some tracks even while I was deejaying, just to bring a small shock effect to all those people who where on the dance floor. Memories were getting back during this painting process... Layer after layer I painted on the track 'How Fortunate The Man With None'. The signature is an original wax stamp and has a chip inside with information about the artist, the painting, the heritage and the Certificate of Authenticity.
1962 Beverwijk, Netherlands
Born and grew up in The Netherlands, coming from an artistic family. Mother a graduated fashion designer, father a poet. In his early years you could find him in the recordstores shopping for great new original music that he could play as a deejay. After several years of working as a deejay Rep started his own awarded design company 'ringel design'. He enjoyed working for beautiful companies and brands from the fashion and cosmetic industry. Living a life under influence of music, fashion and design brought him a lot of inspiration. Creativity to make new things. That’s why he started painting. The paintings of Rep Ringel are large, raw, unpolished, executed in earthy tones and metallic paint, often provided with 24K gold and always inspired by music. The process how the paintings are made is special. Painted in many layers, intertwined by horizontal and vertical line structures. The works are named after the source of inspiration; the artist or the relevant track on which the painting was made. Rep’s work has been seen already on fairs, exhibitions and shows all over the world.
