Rotteveel Vermeer, is a Dutch art studio by colorists Jochem Rotteveel (1976, NL) and Thomas Vermeer (1984, NL). Their work is an expression of Jochem and Thomas’ shared fascination with colour. Both of them start with the same process: creating colour studies. They explore how colours can affect each other as well as how they affect the mood of the viewer. The result of their efforts is a collaborative series of works, created in the tradition of Jochem’s methodology. With foil and tape, they investigate several boundaries. By folding the foil, they add volume onto flat surfaces, stretching the boundary between two-dimensional and three-dimensional. The material becomes pasty but does not reveal its origins. The spectator does not know whether it is metal, plastic or ceramic.
