Theme's :
As long as I remember, always busy with pencils and paint, I had my first exhibition at the age of 12 in the Boymans van Bheuningen Museum in Rotterdam with other scholars. My theme was inspired by the sea: a diving mermaid. I lived from my 9th till my 12th with my family in Den Helder near the sea and was very home-sea-sick after our removal to Rotterdam. The metaphor of the sea became an often returning source of inspirationin my adultness. I am very interested in the world surround our kown-one and the projections of the mind (Paribhogacetiya),the world beyond the horizon, something like "the other side of the world" - a place I dreamed about to travel to, when I was a child. And I wonder the universal aspects of life like the great mystery of birth and death. Style & Workmethod : I like to assemblate and use mixed materials. The things I 've created are made with paint, photography,animation, video, clay, wood, metal and textile. I think you can call my style poëtic and a littlebit surrealistic. I call it "paralistic". |
