The works of We are out of office have a figurative,
simplified character and a naive and playful atmosphere. Their aesthetics are
bold and have a big focus on color. Winneke en Felix mostly work in ongoing
series in which they explore specific themes or techniques. Working in a wide
variety of media such as print, painting, sculpting, ceramics and textile
allows them to use each mediums strengths to highlight different aspects of
their work. They repeat and recycle elements in different works across
different media to construct a web of connections between all their works, this
to create a universe on it’s own.

At first sight the works are reflecting the beauty and joy in ordinary things. They capture moments of their life: An arrangement of objects in their home, fresh crop from the garden, a souvenir from a trip they made, a cup of coffee in the morning. They think in images and making work helps them to remember and relive these moments. They work from an archive of physical objects, photo’s, notes and memories that fill their home and became part of their everyday life.
