Jan Peter Vos is a typical autodidact, always on the way for new discoveries.
He is most fascinated by the beauty of the „unimpressive“ of Mother Earth.
His creations are a confrontation und at the same time a communication with the energies, as he feels them.
Discover new worlds
Bjandyr von der Kinnwies- That´s my Icelandic name. My friends call me Bjanny!
Since 9 years I am always there, where Jan Peter is and you bet, I know a lot of the art business in the meantime.
But it´s quite a tough job with his temperament :-)
Throwing sticks at 05:00 pm with JP
We are the team in the background taking care of everything around the artist and his creations.
From web design and development, the organization of exhibitions, press articles and much more.
It´s a lot of fun to accompany JP. It´s never boring :-)
The Familiy
I am born in 1941 in Blaricum, the Netherlands, as the oldest son of a textile business family.
My father, a Leica fanatic, introduced me into the worlds of art, nature and photography, I got so fascinated, that they became natural parts of me.
Originally I planned to join the world of textiles, but my life took a major turn in 1965. I departed to Latin America, where I found my lost “home” in Guatemala.
The colorful lifestyle of the people, their emotions and their very special touch with nature got anchored for good in my soul.
1969, after the birth of my first 2 kids, I decided to return to Europe to learn more about industrial thinking.
During the 70´s I have been working for a large international company and became an active part of the video and computer revolution.
I have been involved in the birth of the first consumer video cameras and as from the early 80´s I became active in the development and marketing of the early generation of personal computers.
Unbiased and creative thinking is my thing.
I entered the software industry with a small group of equally minded people developing and marketing revolutionary software solutions.
Photography, the heritage of my father, turned digital and expanded my digital experience multiplying my options to create.
The infinite creativity of Mother Nature became my source of inspiration.
Tiny and often ignored details started to draw my attention.
They were the start of my journey.
My art is digital.
I am working with electronic pixels and my tools are my intuition, my camera, my mobile phone, Lightroom and Photoshop.
Sometimes I am working like a painter works with paint, sometimes I am building electronic constructions.
Mother Nature is my Master.
She allows me to create my own worlds.
I am not copying or competing with her.
On the contrary, she triggers my intuition.
My art is a journey into the unknown.
I don’t know neither plan the outcome before.
It starts to exist led by my intuition.
Usually I start with two photos to develop a new world, that may be completely different from the original photos.
The photos that I use in my creative process are shot spontaneously without any planning.
When they „talk“ to me, they join me in my creative process.
Maybe my secret is, that I switch off thinking and work intuitively.
The quality of the outcome depends on the intuitive clarity of the time of creation.
Creation can be fast, but may also take a longer time.
A picture is finished, as soon as I feel its harmony.
Some pictures have an enormous power and can be a tremendous source of information resulting into many more pictures.
