Niek Hendrix loves incorporating iconic paintings from the past into his work, and this one is no exception.
This series is based on La reproduction interdite by René Magritte (1898-1967). Hendrix wants us to think about how his work and the reference material interrelate. Would you look at Magritte’s painting differently after seeing this work – or maybe the other way around?
