Raquel van Haver’s artworks can be seen as energetic dreamscapes; opening small windows to scenes of quotidian life. Her craft delicately portrays her intimate circle, placing familiar faces in new surroundings where the exploration of themes of global connectivity, migration, cultural history, and habits play a big role in determining the similarities and differences of human existence. Often monumental in scale, at times ominous and colorful, her works negotiate boundaries between alienation and recognition.

Background 
Raquel van Haver (1989) lives and works in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. She graduated from the HKU, Fine Arts department in Utrecht. She contributed to group exhibitions at art spaces such as Framer Framed, Amsterdam and Fiesta del Fuego, Santiago de Cuba, and has had solo presentations at Jackbell Gallery London, Sanquin Amsterdam and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, among others.
