Merlijn van de Sande is a multidisciplinary artist who creates unique worlds. Her works of art translate the inner world and the awareness of what is happening outside our sensory perception into external landscapes. These places are not literal representations of existing locations, but rather a fusion of reality and imagination, combining both recognizable and imagined elements from architecture and nature. Merlijn brings these worlds to life in dioramas, sculptures and digital works, using contrasting materials.
