Ik ben Chantal van Heeswijk

communication - conceptual - design - education - installation

For no apparent reason ideas come… My hands are put to work and a reality of my own arises. I have to keep a close eye on them because when the ideas start to grow, they often grow faster than I can keep up with them. From one idea comes another association… then 2-dimensional, then 3-dimensional. At the moment my ceramic sculptures are hanging on the wall and drawings are intertwined.

Fortunately my handwriting remains recognizable and the use of materials, tactility, emotion and a dose of humor are the fixed elements in the work. My work is created while my hands translate what my eyes experience. I give them the space to create their own language, a recognizable visual language, a new reality. Hopefully my work also enriches your reality.

You can go in any direction with me. I can give a performance in your theater, make an interactive installation for your festival, do 'Who you are' at your reception or party or give a workshop creative thinking in your company.
