Robert-Jonathan Koeyers (1992, Curaçao) is a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker. He studied animation at the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam where he graduated with an experimental film titled Here: A Visual Poem, which served both as a dense collection of visual research, as well as an abstract and poetic telling of the work that he would continue to make. Throughout the years he has been using film, photography, animation, music, and other mediums to help turn his stories into deeply personal projects that aim to unpack how his Blackness has shaped and melded him into the person he is and aim to explore how the lived experiences of Black people can be told in an authentic and vulnerable way.
