Warm Heart is the first art series by Renée de Vink created in Malawi. Each piece is rooted in daily life and shaped by the place where it was made.

​

Renée painted this series on old book pages and magazines. In a country where quality art materials are not always easy to find, this choice became both practical and meaningful. The paper itself carries history. Every book or magazine once traveled here with intention, brought by someone for a reason.

​

By painting on these pages, stories overlap. The visible and the hidden, the past and the present. The result is a layered body of work that reflects Malawi’s warmth, resilience, and quiet beauty, inviting the viewer to feel part of that journey.
