I’m Ruben Tevreden, a self-taught artist based in Amsterdam. My work explores the emotional and symbolic language of ritual as a response to collective uncertainty about the future. Over the last five years I’ve worked across illustration, photography, and oil painting, creating melancholic images that leave space for both my cynicism and my belief in the power of community.
