#fragiles

Nants Schilstra

Hoi, I am Nants.

All my life I have been collecting useful and totally useless things. Partly because I come from a farmer's family (we never throw away possibly useful materials) and partly because I saw and see beauty in it.

During the pandemic years I too had more time to contemplate and that miraculously opened me up to what I now call my #fragiles! So many ideas came and are still coming. I started to show the Fragiles in my window sill and now I even have a beautiful studio behind my house and take part in exhibitions.

Have a look at my portfolio and get inspired by nature through my art.

Let's talk!

Have something in mind? A question, an idea, or simply a feeling stirred by what you’ve seen? I’m always open to dialogue—whether you want to collaborate, inquire about the work, or just exchange thoughts. Every conversation begins with curiosity, and from there, something new can emerge. Don’t hesitate to reach out.
