Fabienne Hendriks (1996) uses her artistic practice as an opening to reflect with whom and in which space she shares her life. She designs situations where she can make herself vulnerable and give something to the other.
What she wants to grab from her own life are the relationships that she experiences as inspiring and intense. Every relationship is different and worth exploring. Therefore, several studies are running concurrently. Hendriks works intuitively and associatively, which means that she does not regard any work as definitive or finite. Moreover, the media in the visual arts are an endless source of inspiration for her. After all, each medium brings with it a different meaning, which makes her wonder what meaning she is looking for exactly.
Hendriks' visual work always starts with creating an activating situation. From this position she starts working with the input she receives from her environment, after which the search for the right medium begins. She experiments with that.
