Raised in a family of artists, she developed her visual language through years of independent study, complemented by courses in painting and photography with professional artists and photographers.<\/p>\nSince the COVID-19 pandemic, Bleeker<\/span> has worked extensively with dried botanical materials. She creates temporary arrangements on a lightbox, which she photographs in high resolution. The illuminated surface reveals intricate botanical structures that often escape ordinary perception. Petals, leaves, and grasses are transformed into patterns, rhythms, and architectural forms, moving beyond their immediate botanical identity.<\/p>\nCentral to her practice is the dialogue between organic growth and human intervention. By organizing botanical elements into geometric and near-mathematical compositions\u2014and at times physically altering the material by cutting or punching geometric forms\u2014Bleeker<\/span> investigates how natural forms can be subjected to systems of control while retaining their inherent fragility, unpredictability, and transience.<\/p>\nBleeker<\/span> approaches nature not merely as a subject, but as a counterforce to an increasingly standardized and efficiency-driven world. Her work highlights the value of imperfection, diversity, and difference, inviting viewers to reconsider their relationship with both the natural environment and the structures through which we seek to understand and shape it.<\/p>\nRecent exhibitions include Stek (2021), Rozing Wonen (2024), and the group exhibition The Space Does Not Agree at Brutus Art Space (2026). In autumn 2026, she will participate in the Groot Rotterdams Atelier Weekend, followed by a presentation at the Kaapse Kunstetalage in 2027.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
