Jan van Delft, he takes you in mind with it to the rock paintings of the cave dwellers, to the Celts, the Saxons and the renaissance man to enter the world of our daily reality. Jan van Delft lives in the realization that he as an artist indebted to his predecessors, not only its own development, but also as regards the development of the Visual tradition. Against this background, it is logical that he not only from his own past, inspired by the stories he read or heard, or from the images he saw and recorded in itself, but that he's mostly from the knowledge of art history are main incentives. The last time his interest for the use of new techniques and materials. He tears is boring and burns material as if it were a sculpture. Negative and positive reinforce each other in a spatial framework. In the series with the Twente façade-and he works stiepeltekens with dark burnt-on forms on a surface of paper, its centuries-old marks into a contemporary image. They are as well as the other weeks of him, solidified images that are part of the universal visual language of man, in which he tries to get to grips with the unexplainable whereby he is surrounded.
