Ralf Westerhof (b. 1977) is a Dutch artist who creates wire sculptures and light art installations. Westerhof was initially active as a scenographer in theatre, and his passion for performing arts, especially dance, is visible in his often kinetic works. His minimal line drawings offer audiences part of the image, leaving it up to their imaginations to fill in the gaps as they or the work moves to become co-creators of what they see.
In 2013 Westerhof made his first large light art installation as he participated in the Amsterdam Light Festival. The work, Drawn in Light, is a 13-meter-wide mobile, a moving line drawing of an Amsterdam cityscape. Since then his work has been shown internationally, in Belgium, Canada, Germany, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland and Taiwan.
