Moniek Schrijer’s work explores the transformative potential of materials, often incorporating stones, shells, and found objects.

It has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and is held in collections such as the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and The Dowse Art Museum. Notable accolades include the 2016 Herbert Hofmann Preis.
