Philipine Vinke (Dutch : Philipine Vinke, born on 3 November 1968 in Ermelo, Netherlands) is a Dutch artist. Founding member of "The Nunspeet School". [1]
Philipine Vinke was born in 1968 in Ermelo, works and lives in Nunspeet. Vinke uses her innovative technique Bubble Gilding of which first works were created in 2015. [2] Vinke integrates modern materials, such as epoxy, with old techniques as watergilding and "verre églomisé". [3]
Exclusively for Armenia Art Fair 2018 Vinke has produced a "Welcome Pennant" in the colours of the Armenian flag. Welcome Pennants are flown on Dutch flagpoles. They are a welcoming symbol. Dutch Parliament recognized the Armenian genocide in 2018, and Vinke's pennant is both part of this commemoration as well as a celebration of the first Armenian Art Fair. The pennant is part of a series “Welcome Pennants” which Vinke produced in colours of flags. The technique Vinke uses has been developed by herself. The pennant is cast freehand out of epoxy.
Armenia Art Fair is the first time Vinke has been exhibited in Armenia. Earlier in 2018 Vinke exhibited in Dubai, as well as in the Netherlands. On display in the booth of Gallery Duarte will be pieces from her first series of Bubble Gilding, as well as her current series „Art Mirrors“, and „Obsolete Ego’s”. These are made from recycled mirrors. Since a part of their reflective surfaces has been removed, these mirrors represent both the reflective side of humanity as well as its transparency.
Philipine Vinke's artworks can be found in private collections worldwide.
A flag is a piece of fabric with distinctive colours and design. It is used as a symbol, a signalling device, or for decoration. The term flag is also used to refer to the graphic design employed, and flags have evolved into a general tool for rudimentary signalling and identification, especially in environments where communication is challenging. Many flags fall into groups of similar designs called flag families. The study of flags is known as "vexillology" from the Latin vexillum, meaning "flag" or "banner".
A mirror, also known as a looking glass, is an object that reflects an image. Light that bounces off a mirror will show an image of whatever is in front of it, when focused through the lens of the eye or a camera. Mirrors reverse the direction of the image in an equal yet opposite angle from which the light shines upon it. This allows the viewer to see themselves or objects behind them, or even objects that are at an angle from them but out of their field of view, such as around a corner. Natural mirrors have existed since prehistoric times, such as the surface of water, but people have been manufacturing mirrors out of a variety of materials for thousands of years, like stone, metals, and glass. In modern mirrors, metals like silver or aluminium are often used due to their high reflectivity, applied as a thin coating on glass because of its naturally smooth and very hard surface.
Screen printing is a printing technique where a mesh is used to transfer ink onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil. A blade or squeegee is moved across the screen in a "flood stroke" to fill the open mesh apertures with ink, and a reverse stroke then causes the screen to touch the substrate momentarily along a line of contact. This causes the ink to wet the substrate and be pulled out of the mesh apertures as the screen springs back after the blade has passed. One colour is printed at a time, so several screens can be used to produce a multi-coloured image or design.

Sasanian Glass is the glassware produced between the 3rd and the 7th centuries AD within the limits of the Sasanian Empire of Persia, namely present-day Northern Iraq, Iran and Central Asia. This is a silica-soda-lime glass production characterized by thick glass-blown vessels relatively sober in decoration, avoiding plain colours in favour of transparency and with vessels worked in one piece without over- elaborate amendments. Thus the decoration usually consists of solid and visual motifs from the mould (reliefs), with ribbed and deeply cut facets, although other techniques like trailing and applied motifs were practised.
