Jeltje Schuurmans (1996) is a Rotterdam-based multidisciplinary artist working across sculpture, film, installation, and sound.She graduated from the Utrecht School of the Arts (Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht) and completed her Master’s degree at the Piet Zwart Institute in Rotterdam in 2023. Her installations emerge as sensory landscapes shaped by tactile materials and estranged objects that echo the body. These elements do not depict, but resist—producing friction, discomfort, and proximity. Memory, dream, and psyche drift together, creating environments where physical, psychological, and symbolic layers remain in flux.
Her work has been shown, among others, in a group exhibition at ECC Italy during the Venice Biennale and at Het HEM in Zaandam.
