About
Ingeborg Steenhorst (1973), is a Belgium born-Dutch visual artist, photographer, and fashion designer.
She creates unique autonomous art in which experiencing nature and storytelling take on a prominent role. Ingeborg aims to strengthen our connection with nature by including the beauty and diversity of Dutch landscape in her art. In doing so she trives to inspire us to a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
The artist combines analog and digital photography with mixed media techniques and unique self-made costumes and accessories. As a lover of nature, she has a strong urge to create sustainably and often uses vintage fabrics, excisting clothing components and old jewelry...
Inspiration
The changing seasons offer Ingeborg a wealth of inspiration. From the vibrant hues of spring to the serene tones of winter: every season provides her different perspective and brings its own unique colours, moods, and textures. Her art is a tribute to nature and the hidden stories she sees within it.
During post-production, the artist edits her photos digitally on the computer and also physically with mixed media techniques. Those techniques give her photo's a special depth and unique signature resulting in 'painterly' fine art photography in which wonder, admiration, fantasy and reality alternate.
Workflow
Ingeborg's workflow involves an extensive process, from writing scripts, scouting models, exploring landscape locations, creating self-designed costumes and decorations to hand-painting backgrounds.
Her mostly one-of-a-kind fashion designs are the result of labor-intensive handwork, artistry and craftsmanship combined with a strong desire to create sustainable. Vintage fabrics and materials are often used.
Background
Starting in the 1990s with graphic and fashion design, Ingeborg was already interested in visual arts, photography and scenography during her studies. In 2006 she founded the fashion brands 'Ingeborg Steenhorst Couture' and 'I Style Stars'. Her fashion designs are worn by people all over the world. Many renowned artists also perform in her costume designs.
Over time, she fell in love with fine art photography and mixed media art. Between 2021 and 2024 she obtained her diploma in professional photography with a specialization in photographic design. Nowadays creating fine art photography and publishing art photo books and art prints are her main activity.
