Be who you are: artist Jeroen fights inequality with nude portraits

Be who you are artist Jeroen fights inequality with nude

Van den Belt is pleased with the reactions of passers-by. An exhibition will open in the museum on Saturday, depicting all kinds of people. Men, women, non-binary, intersex: everyone is immortalized naked. The museum director asked the Utrecht artist Jeroen Hermkens to make the works to show as many different people as possible. “I think it’s important that people can be who they are and that they can express that,” says Van Den Belt.
