Maarten Léon — Collage Between Memory and Stillness

Maarten Léon is an Amsterdam-based collage artist whose work turns everyday fragments into quiet, contemplative compositions. He layers found imagery into scenes that feel familiar and dreamlike at once, moving between realism and abstraction with a clean, minimalist hand. The nostalgic, understated mood suits a living room, study, or bedroom where you want something to sit with rather than shout. His work fits naturally beside our illustration and abstract prints.

Maarten's collages have a quiet, contemplative mood, so they suit a study, living room, or bedroom where you want something to sit with. The nostalgic palette works against neutral or warm walls, and oak or walnut framing suits the soft tone. A3 fits a gallery grouping, while 50×70 cm or 70×100 cm lets the layered detail read clearly.

Sizes, Frames, and Ordering

Choosing between paper and canvas comes down to finish. Fine art paper under glass gives a crisp, gallery feel and works with every frame colour, while canvas brings a softer, frame-optional surface with more texture. For most walls, 50×70 cm is the versatile middle size, A3 suits a desk or shelf, and 70×100 cm or A0 makes a clear focal point. If you are building a set, keep the sizes consistent for a cleaner grid.

Fine art paper prints come in A3, 50×70 cm, 70×100 cm, and A0, printed on 225g matte stock that holds clean edges and even tone. Canvas prints are available in 30×40 cm, 50×70 cm, and 70×100 cm on 400g cotton, stretched on wooden bars and ready to hang. Frames come in oak, black, and walnut brown, and canvas can be ordered with a floating frame for a gallery-style shadow gap.

Every order ships from our Berlin studio. We print, check, and pack in-house, with no outsourcing and no drop-shipping, so the print you receive was handled start to finish by the same small team.
