About the exhibition

Van Baarle designs characters for animated films and computer games, including Horizon Zero Dawn (2017). At present, however, she is enjoying her greatest success with her non-commissioned work, which often features young women. Sometimes dreamy, but usually strong and independent. These portraits have brought her international acclaim.
