Marita Beukers (Rotterdam 1948) studied photography at the art academy St.Joost in Breda in The Netherlands from 1968 until 1973. Directly after her studies she fully concentrated on her motherhood, but she followed various workshops in the field of photography and painting. In the year 1997 she finally committed herself in full to a professional career as a photographer and started participating in a long list of exhibitions showing her work. Currently she shows her work within four to five exhibitions yearly.

Her photographic work captures in a natural and direct manner her egocentric views on the world we are living in and show her fascination for structure and detail. Daily issues and items
become abstractions standing way above their actual function. Point of interest within her work is her well developed feeling for balance. Marita Beukers started several years ago to experiment with photographic collage within her work. The results, once again are a fine example of her highly developed feeling for balance in composition and color. The material she uses for her collage work, is fully developed by herself using her skills as a photographer. Now some years further in her development, she searches the challenge to make exciting photographic collages in connection with (mostly self-appointed) themes. Themes like 'cities', 'music' and 'food', currently create the conceptual ingredients for her photo-collages.
