He is a photographer-artist. His pictures are both a dream of Africa and a meditation on the role of color in a racial as well as pictorial sense.
He photographs professional child models in his studio along with detailed images of leaves, flowers, plants and animals. The pictures are then mixed and composed into Rousseau-like edenic settings using Photoshop.
Mixing truth and fiction, innocence and danger, van Empel’s work contains complex pictorial and political underpinnings while bursting with color.

Japanse kunstenares, Yayoi Kusama (草間 彌生,Kusama Yayoi

"...a polka dot has the form of the sun, which is a symbol of the energy of the whole world and our living life, and also the form of the moon, which is calm. Round, soft, colorful, senseless and unknowing. Polka dots become movement... Polka dots are a way to infinity."
Yayoi maakte in de internationale kunstwereld furore met haar ruimtevullende installaties, waarin de bezoeker wordt omgeven door duizenden kleurrijke, kleine, opgevulde – vaak fallische – textiele objecten.
Infinity Mirror Room – Phalli’s Field (1965) is de eerste installatie waarin Yayoi Kusama gebruik maakt van spiegels; een materiaal dat zij haar leven lang zal blijven gebruiken en dat samen met haar zogenaamde ‘dots’ een essentieel aspect in Kusama’s oeuvre vormt. De ruimtevullende installaties van Kusama staan aan de basis van een inmiddels wijdverbreide traditie van ‘environments’ in de kunst.

Killing the innocent

Killing the Innocent.

Playing in the sand
Avoiding angry hands
Nothing i have is for free
That's pretty normal to me
Even for my innocence i had to pay
I live in this world that went so astray
The burning sun on my cold hands
The pain
Crushing flesh
Blooddrops
Beating hearts in  jars
I trusted you with my closed eyes
You slith them open and gave me a golden ticket and send me away
Far to a land unknown
Whats normal for me is twisted for you
You don't have a clue of the things life could do to you
I found love
I found trust
I found things
I found reallity
As i reminice the day you gave my innocence away.
