Intrigued by the human body, movement, and the rhythms of nature, Elin Visser creates work where visual storytelling and material come together. Her practice spans sculpture, photography, film, and the design of objects and spaces. Guided by intuition, she moves fluidly between different disciplines. Her work is united by a distinct sensitivity where every project offers a personal yet universal language that evokes emotion and curiosity. Throughout her practice, she often explores themes related to the body and femininity, drawing from intimate experiences to reflect on what it means to be human, artist and to be a woman. Her concept-driven approach deepens the layers of meaning in each work, encouraging reflection on human interactions and the relation to the self. Whether shaping a sculpture or curating a photographic series, she aims to create immersive, poetic projects that invite viewers to feel, pause, and engage. Her work opens conversations around womanhood, transformation, and the subtle yet powerful threads that bind us to ourselves, each other, and our surroundings.
Next to commissions and collaborations, I work on self-initiated projects. I graduated Cum Laude from Design Academy Eindhoven (NL) with a minor in ceramics and I’m currently living and working in Amsterdam.
The last years I worked on several video and photography projects as art- and creative director and started my own ceramic studio where I work on sculptural objects.
