Dutch artist/sculptor/photographer Scarlett Hooft Graafland has traveled the globe, from the Arctic Circle to the Andes, and from China to Israel, producing an intoxicating body of work grounded in magical realism and humor. She creates idiosyncratic , site-specific installations that are inspired by local landscapes, cultures, customs and materials, with a dash of the absurd added for good measure. She often spends weeks on location patiently waiting for inspiration. Judging by her photographs, it has been well worth the effort.
