A LOVE LETTER TO THE CITY BY SISTERSJANSSEN 

As local artists of Amsterdam, the city has a high impact on the stories that we tell. Inspiration is a never-ending thing and the people, especially women, of Amsterdam shape what inspires us to create. It’s almost like a New Wave that creates New Ways of being and expressing. Their voices give light to the city that we call home.

THE NEW WAVE THE NEW WAY

WHAT INSPIRES US THE MOST ABOUT THE CITY?

The people, the creativity, the drive, the stories, the authenticity, the passion, the WOMEN. 

Individuals that use new ways of expressing themselves, that use new ways of creating. Individuals that have their own stories to tell. After all the people shape the city. 

We made three artworks using different materials and techniques. The funny thing is that we also used new ways of creating the artworks by using materials that we have never worked with before. 

Our artwork ‘’ WALK OF ART’’ is a translation of this New Wave of creative woman in Amsterdam that inspire us. They are bold, expressive, talented, and not afraid to chase their dreams. We would describe them as walking works of art. 

LOCATIONS ARTWORK | ‘’LOCAL PASSION’’

Our artwork ‘’LOCAL PASSION’’ is a translation of the local hotspots that shape this city for us. All are owned by individuals that pour their heart and soul into what they do. All with different story’s to tell and/or messages to spread. Almost all these hotspots have in common that they create space for communities to express who they are, this is exactly what people need to be authentic in their own way – NEW WAY. 

As we said, the people shape the city and these spots are filled with people that contribute to that.

CAMPAIGN

For the teaser-campaign ceramic artist and mother of the two sisters Helen Martina created one of her signature art pieces: De dikke dame, that represent the source of creativity and womanhood for the two sisters. She turned it completely silver to give it that NewAmsterdam touch of steel. 

‘’ Our mother taught us almost everything we know about creativity and womanhood. She is one of the reasons we started sisters Janssen which made her signature art piece a perfect symbol for this (woman focused) collaboration’’- Sisters Janssen

‘ Blending sisterhood with Brotherhood through a wave of colors and shapes’

For the campaign, the sisters Ziarah and Tisja showcase their sisterhood by blending their bodies as one, while the NewAmsterdam brothers, team riders, and creatives at heart showcase their brotherhood. The bathing suits are made with one of Econyl’s sustainable recycled nylon fabrics.  The scarfs are 100% silk. Both are available on the website of Newamsterdamsurfassociation.

Numéro:

Both New Amsterdam and SistersJanssen who have been friends for some time now are all about collaborating with friends and family. So, it comes as no surprise that the two joined forces to create their first limited edition woman’s piece: A bathing suit painted by SistersJanssen & designed by NewAmsterdam. This collaboration is a fusion of the sisters feminity, which brings colors and shapes & NewAmsterdams surfing side, which brings water and waves.

IN CONVERSATION WITH ARTISTS “THE SISTERS JANSSEN” 12 may 2022

Zalando launches local campaign ‘In the streets of…’ and celebrates street culture in the Netherlands in all its forms as part of its streetwear campaign ‘Go noticed’.

Sisters Janssen are contemporary painters who make beautiful and inspiring art and Numéro had the pleasure to speak with them.

The Sisters Janssen are two sisters born in Curaçao and living in Amsterdam. Ziarah and Tisja create another dimension by blending photography and painting in the form of intriguing collages where the focus is on themes like connection and inclusivity in art. They exhibited at Afroism and created artworks for Ganni and collaborated with Laasso.

Ziarah and Tisja, thank you so much for your time. Let’s start with the interview…

Art has always been part of your life having a mom as a multidisciplinary artist. Did you always know you wanted to do something in this area? Or when was the moment you knew you wanted to start painting as Sisters Janssen?

Being creative for us was like learning to walk. Our mother and father always taught us to be whoever we want and do whatever we felt like. From a young age ZIZI was always dressing up and Tisja started making collages from scratch. This developed both into doing a creative study and because of our age gap we first walked our creative journey on our own. It was around BLM/Corona that we combined our passions and took the time to figure out what it is that we want to put out in the world: A colorful future in every sense of the word. – source Zalando x Numéro

Not an Assignment

Not an Assignment

Serana Angelista, Ziarah Janssen & Kenneth Aidoo
6 Aug – 26 Sep 2021

Hama Gallery presenteert met trots Not an Assignment: Serana Angelista, Ziarah Janssen en Kenneth Aidoo. Een groepsexpositie zonder eisen, voorwaarden of verwachtingen. Met een carte blanche ontpoppen deze drie kunstenaars zich los van enige opdracht of opgedragen kaders. Het werk duikt in het verleden en de toekomst en viert de artistieke verbeeldingskracht met een overvloed aan betekenis, levendige kleuren en geschilderde zowel als digitale texturen en patronen. 

Ziarah Janssen 

Ziarah Janssen stelt de lichamelijkheid van haar onderwerpen centraal en viert de intimiteit tussen vrouwen als moeder en dochter, als minnaars, of als opgerolde individuen. Hun verbondenheid komt tot uiting als kussende impasto-monden of in het samensmelten van vele gezichten, kleuren en ledematen die zich in elkaar vouwen in eeuwige omhelzingen – Hugs Forever. Rijke kleuren verf benadrukken de details van Ziarahs figuren, terwijl de geometrie van hun anatomie de composities een speelse kwaliteit geeft.
