Rika Maja Duevel

Rika Maja Duevel is a painter and mixed media artist originally from Stavanger, Norway, now residing in Amsterdam, Netherlands. She is a global nomad and this triggers the nucleus of her work. With each new adventure, she finds new inspiration. Her artwork manifests from her daily experiences, the idea of capturing the moment. She allows herself to embrace or let go of each experience by sharing a piece of it with others. Her wish is that the observer might be able to pull their own experience from each piece. As a painter and mixed media artist, she explores the boundaries of what the material can do. She often uses vibrant colors and patterns to document each story. A sketchbook always within her reach, is her portable way of capturing each idea as they come. This process has taken her all over the world and with each destination she documents a different story, a different moment.
