Where Art Meets Science
Resilience Series
The Resilience Series explores how disruption transforms into structure, and how vulnerability coexists with strength. Through large-scale abstract works on acoustic absorbing canvas, art and science converge in spatial experiences of integration and human resilience.
Rooted in decades of scientific work in perception and high-impact research, Scheijen’s practice bridges analytical insight and abstract expression. Material and meaning are inseparable: the acoustic foundation of each work subtly alters the space in which it is installed, reducing sound reflection and inviting stillness.
Resilience, here, is not heroic. It is layered, lived and integrated.

Structure emerging from stillness.
Silence as structure. A spatial exploration of integration. Built upon acoustic absorbing material, the work subtly alters the environment in which it is installed, reducing sound reflection and creating a perceptual shift toward balance and coherence.
Private collection of the artist.
Available for exhibition.

Fracture transformed into form.
A gold-lined rupture traverses the surface -not concealing disruption, but transforming it. The two panels function independently yet complete one another, reinforcing resilience as relational and embodied.
Available for exhibitions.
Artist Statement
Resilience is not the absence of fracture.
It is the integration of it.
In my scientific work, I encounter how humans adapt to disruption - sensory, emotional, existential. In my paintings, that same process becomes visible.
I work on acoustic absorbing canvas so that form and meaning align. The material itself participates in the experience, softening sound and subtly shaping the environment around it.
Recurring gold lines appear as visible integrations of rupture. They are not decorative elements, but acknowledgements of lived experience. Like healed tissue, they remain present - transformed, not erased.
My works carry no descriptive titles. Instead, they are coded (DS-year-number), allowing the viewer to encounter the painting as a mirror rather than a narrative.
Resilience, in this series, is quiet. Structured. Human.
