BIOGRAPHY

Hanneke van Ryswyk is a Welsh-Dutch visual artist living on the Wexford coast. She paints the natural world, its vulnerability, beauty, and the effects of extreme weather on land and sea. She paints imagined lands and seas, with an abstracted aesthetic and sensitivity.

Van Byswk has held eight Irish solo exhibitions and has been selected to exhibit in the UK, Australia and nationally at The RHA, Dublin, VISUAL Carlow, The Model, Sligo, The Lavit Gallery, Cork and at Wexford County Council.

She has been awarded residencies at Cill Rialaig, The Tyrone Guthrie Centre, Kultivera, Trans, Sweden and has been awarded Visual Arts Bursaries by Artlinks in 2014 and 2019. Her work can be found in the Office of Public Works and Wexford County Council collections.
