Frans Boekkoi is a young sculptor who lives and works in Nieu-Bethesda, and when one looks at this work, it is easy to see why he has chosen this little valley where time has stood still and the stresses of modern life are thoroughly discouraged.
An award winning sculptor by the tender age of 16, Frans sculptures feature in collections around the world.
“My sculptures feed off the nostalgia of innocent times, lost in thought or activity. Sometimes they even embody the thoughts or pictures born in a moment – but every piece has meaning. To me, at least, they speak.”
Most sculptures are in acrylic resin, but gallery pieces can be redone in bronze on commission.
