Art That Anchors Space. Designed for Presence.
Joanna Wolthuizen advances hard-edge, lyrical abstraction into Composed Abstraction™ — geometrical emotional architecture.
Collected worldwide, her large-scale works inhabit space with powerful composure: measured colour, calibrated proportion, and quiet architectural stillness.
Each piece is crafted for discerning collectors and designers seeking art with emotional precision and enduring presence.
Private In-Situ Viewings
Melbourne-based collectors are invited to experience selected works in situ, within their own space.This complimentary service allows each work to be considered in context — proportion, light, and architectural presence — before acquisition.
Collected for the Long Term
Joanna Wolthuizen’s works are held in private and corporate collections worldwide.Each piece is created with enduring material integrity, calibrated proportion, and sustained visual relevance over time.
In The Mineral Series, Joanna Wolthuizen distills her visual language into an architecture of stillness. Through refined geometry and a mineral palette, each painting becomes a structure for contemplation — an interplay between rhythm and restraint, colour and calm. These works evoke the quiet poise that follows understanding; the serenity that emerges when emotion meets order.
The Vivid Series explores the architecture of motion — where colour, rhythm, and light converge. Each composition becomes a living geometry: energy held within structure, emotion distilled into design.
Together, the works form a lexicon of vitality — an architecture of joy.
Art and architecture share a common language of proportion, rhythm, and restraint. Joanna Wolthuizen’s large-scale abstractions transcend décor to become integral to spatial design—transforming walls into instruments of balance, presence, and identity.
