Daniel is a neurodivergent mixed media artist and former international school principal whose work spans two distinct and equally uncompromising bodies of practice.
After years navigating a career that demanded conformity, Daniel walked away from the system entirely — not as an escape, but as the only honest way to live. Born in the Netherlands and now living with his Malaysian family in Perak, Malaysia, his work is shaped by two cultures, two ways of seeing, and a restless creative mind that refuses to be contained.
His abstract and monoprint works are immediate and visceral. Bold explosions of colour, energy, and form that communicate what language cannot. For collectors seeking art that brings genuine emotional presence into a space, these pieces don’t quietly hang on a wall — they transform it.
His second body of work is something rarer. Through cinematic game-inspired digital art, Daniel places vernacular architecture — the ordinary, uncelebrated buildings that communities actually live in — into dramatic, atmospheric worlds that feel simultaneously familiar and impossible. Traditional structures rendered in rich, stylised detail and transplanted into alien landscapes lit by impossible skies. It is art that asks quiet but urgent questions about cultural identity, belonging, and what gets preserved when the world moves on.
These are fine art prints for people who look closely — and find they cannot look away.
