I'm Jimmy Groen (he/ him,  boygender and plural), I live in  a small village in the hills of South -Limburg (NL). Since 1992, my work has grown from a place where childhood never arrived and adulthood never fit.

I live and work from the margins of society — not by choice, but as the consequence of a childhood without protection and an adulthood without recognition. My work grows out of a history of institutional exclusion, loss, and a continuous struggle to exist.

I share my inner world with Tim and Alex, my creative identities from a time when survival mattered more than growing up. Together, we form an ongoing line of making, remembering, and refusing to disappear.

Our work is a counter‑voice. A proof of existence. A way of living in a country that denied our identity — and our existence — for decades.
