"Korneel Jeuken is a visual artist, cartoonist and illustrator. Under his alias Jøken he makes comic art paintings and drawings with a recognizable character. The 'Blockheads' that he paints on the most diverse materials depict crazy characters but also the need to feel like to hide behind a mask and to adopt a new identity. Jøken calls the work ' New Cubism' because he always had a fascination for the movement between the spatial and the flat surface. In his earlier work this led to abstract paintings and installations that architecturally depicted his inner world. In the current work it still plays a role because the figures in his world are often constructed from blocks. Yet he does not want to limit himself to blocks. The process of making must remain intuitive. Small sketches that arise in a 'stream of consciousness' form the basis for paintings on wood, cardboard or canvas. Devils, rabbits, kings and skeletons, often dressed in suits and ties, populate the colorful world of Jøken: an apparently cheerful whole of sleekly designed madness... Korneel Jeuken (Venray NL 1975) trained at the St. Joost Academy and the Piet Black Institute and has exhibited at home and abroad. He draws current cartoons for the daily newspaper De Gelderlander."
