I am a multidisciplinary artist, with a background in fashion design and research. I.
use design, illustration and text in my practice. My work is extremely curiosity-driven and stems from a constant questioning of a topic or concept. I work very intuitively and produce a lot of work around one topic, to then go through it to alter and react.
I am not so much interested in a polished end result: my goal is to show the beauty that can be found in imperfection and in that which is often overlooked, and to show the unexpected turns that are inherent to the process. Therefore, a lot of my work is in a state of constant evolution. Performance pieces that keep moving endlessly, a drawing that can be added onto forever, or a strip of words that has no end and no beginning.

    This Is Not An Underwear Collection

    Project

    • 18-01-2021 t/m 31-07-2021
    • In collaboration with: Guusje de Bruin
    • Location: , Rotterdam, Nijmegen, Arnhem
    • A project funded by Creative Industries Fund NL and Schakel025, in collaboration with Guusje the Bruin and other artists. We asked ourselves the following: how can we use our skills in fashion design in an experimental and multidisciplinary way and visualize the multi-faceted concept of femininity, in order to explore and question fashion as a discipline? This will culminate in a performance exhibition at, among other places, the Fashion Design Festival in Arnhem.
