This abstract mixed media painting, with its "concrete look" background, exudes a sense of urban dynamism alongside the vibrancy of human interaction.

At first glance, the canvas looks like a testament to the urban jungle, with its concrete background evoking the unyielding nature of modern life. But a closer look reveals an enchanting interplay of colorful circles. These circles, reminiscent of vibrant, interconnected individuals, dance and weave across the canvas with an enigmatic grace, like people circling each other in a bustling town square.

The circles represent diverse individuals from different walks of life, cultures and backgrounds. They converge and diverge, reflecting the intricate relationships that make up society. The bright, contrasting colors within the circles symbolize the individuality and diversity of each person, while their orbits symbolize the ongoing dance of human connection and disconnection.

db Waterman is a contemporary Dutch artist. In her works she assembles original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink, and pencil. The variety of resources she is able to use has proved indispensable to her. The biggest challenge the collage medium posed was its unforgiving lack of transparency. Finding a way to replicate the effects of transparency afforded by paint, especially watercolors, was a large victory for the artist. The preparing labor shows through in her collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. 

db Waterman believes that the body of her work is characterized by her skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, she revived this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of her work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation.” Her tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
