The Allure of Swans (2017–present) – Klimas began this series years ago with paintings drawing attention to swan drift, a practice that is now prohibited. From this involvement arose a lasting fascination with the presence, movement, and elegance of swans in the Dutch landscape. In this series, Klimas explores their behavior, stillness, and interaction with water and light.




“I want to inspire people to pay more attention to the ‘forgotten’ animals that are used for our consumption."
“Ik wil mensen inspireren om met meer aandacht te kijken naar de ‘vergeten’ dieren die voor onze consumptie worden gebruikt."
— Alexandra Klimas
