The paintings of Mattias De Leeuw explore the intimacy of everyday life. Within his work warmth and tenderness flow quietly, connecting one scene to the next, moments suspended between presence and imagination.
From that first encounter, imagination takes over, shaping a scene that exists somewhere between reality and invention, observation and memory. Each painting begins with a search for a face or a person in whom De Leeuw recognizes something familiar: a trace of vulnerability, an emotion that feels close.
