Project Amy

Project

  • 01-07-2010 t/m 10-04-2012
  • In collaboration with: CBK Rotterdam, cafe Chekhov en Co Rotterdam, St Lusac Gent, Aniek Meeldijk
  • Location: public areas, Rotterdam and Ghent
  • A 2D mouse explores the 3D space, our world that is 3D. The mouse, named Amy, I drew on the spot in public areas. That's how I advertised these spaces. I also animated Amy about products, such as bowls, postcards and a comic strip. I sold these products in stores again.

Animals in Blijdorp Zoo

Project

  • 01-06-2011
  • Location: Diergaarde Blijdorp, Rotterdam
  • I have been drawing animals in the zoo since 2011. This has led to new projects. Small pen drawings, collages, picture books and animation. All inspired by the animals in Blijdorp Zoo. My work has hung in various places, including the Natural History Museum Rotterdam. Through crowdfunding I was able to publish a comic strip. Currently there is a zebra animation in the making.
