Jimmy Groen (ENBY boy, he/ him; b. 1962) lives in Slenaken, the Netherlands, where he works from his home studio. He grew up in very complex conditions in foster care, which seriously hinded his further life. Jimmy is known for his unique and very personal works. He is largely autodidact and has made many hundreds of works in various media since 2019. From 2025 he changed his practice from traditional to a form of interdisciplinary mixed media art. He collaborated with poet Lennart Willems and exhibited his work in various exhibitions, including in a gallery in Belgium.
Tim (2016) and Alex (2017) are creative littles, making art with Jimmy in a mix of ages and identity. They are equally creative and associated to Jimmy's identity.
