“Some pieces are not chosen — they call to be made. A commission is such a calling: a weaving of your story with the eternal rhythms of life and death.”
Exclusive Works, Created for You
Wim van Zyl accepts a limited number of private commissions each year, offering collectors and patrons the rare opportunity to collaborate directly with the artist. Each commission is a singular artwork, designed to embody the client’s vision while carrying Wim’s distinct themes of transformation, mortality, and the sacred.
Art as Legacy
Commissioned pieces extend beyond decoration — they become heirlooms, relics of memory and meaning. Through carefully chosen objects and symbolic assemblage, Wim creates sculptural works that hold both personal resonance and universal depth, destined to be treasured for generations.
The Commission Process
Working closely with clients, Wim begins with dialogue: a conversation about story, symbolism, and intent. From there, he curates and constructs a sculptural narrative — part cabinet of curiosities, part contemporary shrine. Each commission is authenticated as a unique original, rooted in both the collector’s world and Wim’s artistic language.
