Johannes Boekhoudt’s Artist Portfolio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Johannes Boekhoudt was born in Willemstad, Cura\u00e7ao in the Netherlands Antilles and moved to Costa Rica as a child. After a career as a pilot, he took up art in 2005 and has maintained a steady practice. His aesthetic draws from European Modernism and Latin American influences. His early work in collage gave way to a focus on painting, but during the COVID-19 pandemic, he revisited collage. A portfolio of Boekhoudt\u2019s work appears in Kolaj<\/em> 34.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
