Art Month Ameland
Staying in the special world of a Wadden island and enjoying art. That's possible in November on Ameland!
In November, several professional artists will exhibit their work in the inspiring island environment; an international company of artists from Scandinavia, Germany and the Netherlands, among others. Their work can be viewed in around 30 locations, spread throughout the island. In a natural setting of bright and sunny or sometimes mystical and foggy tidal weather, it is wandering and enjoying the island art on display!

Perspective
For many artists, perspective is not just a technical skill but also a means of bringing stories, feelings, and emotions to life. It offers the opportunity to see the world differently and invites deeper exploration. By incorporating perspective into their work, artists create worlds that enchant, challenge, and inspire.
Every line, shadow, and angle within a work of art tells a story. Often, there is more to discover than what is visible at first glance. Perspective encourages us to look further, feel deeper, and uncover new meanings.
The use of perspective allows the artist to engage the viewer and take them on a visual journey. It is a powerful tool to enhance emotions, focus, and narrative elements. By carefully employing it, an artist can offer the viewer a new, surprising “perspective” on the world.
