"... I don’t recognize myself in my music anymore, everything has been recognized, known. I can not find an answer there, no answers where I took them for granted... Wealth: David's Marat. Manet's Whistler, Rembrandt's golden helmet. Aggression. The urge. The urge, it does not sound like a familiar tone me anymore. I've lost the tone. I'm in a void that cries irrevocably for shape. I do not know what kind, because the answers I know give satisfaction no more. What has Slumberland Manifesto done to me? The work is not even finished. Give me new sound!. I want to undergo the love of 7 and not only hear and recognize it. It's not enough anymore. And I’m out black paint. I want to undergo the golden trees, the total freedom without recognizing them as obsolete. I can not go back, because that gives me no gratification. May 7, 2015

The work of Rombout Oomen (Amsterdam, 1975) finds itself on a cutting edge of opposites. The compositions of Oomens paintings seem to be inspired by the period of the Enlighten- ment. But in the performances of its scenes, cool rationalism is the only absentee. The light that shines in his work is flaming and dangerous. The people portrayed entered somewhere in the eighteenth century at Jacques-Louis David’s revolutionary and thrilling environment. Perfumed, well cut and fit, they began celebrating a decent and enlightened ball. In Rombout Oomen’s work, they finish possessed, stuffed and tired without illusions in a bacchanal where they never found the exit. Unhinged in a circus carousel that led them drunk through the night. No reason, love or salvation remains. Only worn out lust and grotesque concepts, which per- haps give moments of thrill and instant happiness – but do not ask for how long. Rombout Oomen likes to paint in series. Such as his Slumberland Manifesto. Often he chooses large formats – wall paintings, factory size cloths in industrial buildings or just one side of a skyscraper – such as his Swan on the A’DAM-tower on the river IJ in Amsterdam. Work who does not hesitate to rather shout out something, though that call is more ambiguous than you think. As the work of Oomen is expressive, but never noisy. If you take the time to study on his euphoric pictures you will discover somewhere in the depth a hushed poignant element. You’re going to suspect that in the darkest corner of his work a Romantic element lays bare. As has been said: the cutting edge of contradictions
