Casper Verborg

Visual artist · Painter
Born 1981, Lobith, The Netherlands
Lives and works in Delft, The Netherlands
Casper Verborg is a Dutch painter whose work explores the possibilities of figuration, abstraction and the theatrical image. His paintings combine found imagery, art-historical references and constructed spaces in which different narratives seem to unfold simultaneously.
