For Frederike Fennema, the essence of freedom—both in thought and emotion—lies at the core of her artistry.

For the visual artist, photography serves merely as a foundation: a method to seize an idea, which can then be transformed. Her creative process is both physical and multi-dimensional, involving the construction, deconstruction, restructuring, and refinement of her concepts. Images are refined to their core essence, while personal experiences are conveyed without direct acknowledgment or detailed explanation. In her creations, she searches for space—both for herself and for those who engage with her work.

Blue plays a central role in Fennema's visual language. For her, this color symbolizes peace, strength and openness. By applying the technique of cyanotype, a photographic process in which a cyan-blue print is created after development, this focus is strengthened.

The abstraction present in her works encourages viewers to form their own interpretations, as Fennema aims to share the freedom she experiences during her creative process with the audience.
