Daan Couzijn’s works focus on themes such as authenticity, existentialism and social psychology, which are fundamentally grounded in his background as an actor/performer. Couzijn doesn’t see the artwork as an end point, but as a simple moment in an infinite network of contributions. Refusing any form of “source-hypocrisy” he accepts all ideas as second-hand, consciously and unconsciously drawn from a million outside sources. He uses moving image, 3D software and artificial intelligence techniques as tools of expression, often resulting in physical outcomes. Besides working as a visual artist, he performs live with his music as Cousin.
