Working my way up

“It seems to me it doesn’t really matter whether one works hard or stumbles one’s way through life. Somehow, the result of any lifestyle is equal to any other. While one falls down, another works hard to get higher, but there are always these forces that keep everybody more or less at the same level.”

The Uncanny String at Van Eyck in Maastricht

JUN'18 The artists taking part in The Uncanny String use dolls in their work to address social, political and cultural themes. As simulants of humankind, they have an expressive quality that has traditionally served to confront us with the reality that we have constructed for ourselves. The doll holds up a mirror to us, interrogates the dominant powers and comments on current affairs.

This exhibition explores the many aspects of dolls and their potentials. They appear in different guises ranging from the lifelike to the grotesque. They may be painted or sculptural, may figure in stop-motion animations or virtual reality. Uncanny, yet familiar.

Alice Creischer, Pieke Dassen, Jos De Gruyter & Harald Thys, N.S. Harsha, Niels Hoebers, Joonas Hyvönen, Marie-Claire Krell, Taus Makhacheva, Rasmus Nilausen, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Wouter van Riessen, Thomas Schütte, Marta Volkova & Slava Shevelenko, Sepideh Zamani

Graduated

JUNE '10 Graduated Cum-laude at the Design Academy Eindhoven.
With the animation Walter, a dialogue with the imagination and the Motion cabinet.

About

Niels Hoebers,
Born in 1981,  Horst, the Netherlands.
Studied at the Design Academy Eindhoven, Where he Graduated in 2010 Cum laude with the stop motion animation Walter, a dialogue with the imagination.
Directly after graduation he started his Stop motion animation Studio based in Eindhoven where he  produces Stop Motion animated production from concept to final edit.
Niels Hoebers' work characterizes it's selves by the wide variety of different materials he uses in his animations. The love and knowledge for these materials and their unique qualities ensure that the animations feel magical real. The creativity on with which he approach each and every project creates an unique alienation between reality and fiction.
The animations are executed in high-resolution and is therefore important that every detail, as in texture, form, light and composition deserves it's focus. 
Hoebers background as a designer plays a major role in this. 

Since 2018 he started to develop Slow Stories.
Slow Stories, subtle stop motion animated scenes that explores the boundaries within Film, Art and Time.
Video's without a beginning or an end, edited in an infinite loop.
Slowstory aims to create a more intimate relation with it's observer, letting them drift and imagine for a short period of time...
They are available in limited editions.

Do not hesitate to contact if you have questions.

I'm always on the lookout for talented interns with gifted minds & hands.
With a preference on building skills. Sounds like you?
