artistiek onderzoek - audiovisueel - conceptueel - cross-over - geluid - installatie

I am an architect specialized in exhibition design who grew up in the world of theater.
Yet, I have always wanted to artistically explore the world, the interactions and dynamics between people.
I have a fascination for the dialectics between the permanent and the temporary. I enjoy questioning what I am doing, what and how others are doing and thinking; this fuels my artistic practice. In my projects, and sometimes just scraps of ideas, I explore nuances and textures through sound, text and spatial interventions.

    • As soon as we become motionless, we are elsewhere

    Residenties / uitwisseling

    • 01-08-2020 t/m 31-03-2021
    • In samenwerking met: TOT - The Orange Tree Art Project
    • Locatie: Ateliergebouw Oranjeboom, Rotterdam
    • "As soon as we become motionless, we are elsewhere" is a spatial intervention in the garden of the Atelier building Oranjeboom that reflects on notions of isolation, solitude, togetherness, daydreaming, imagination, mental space and ultimately, silence. The installation consists of an ordered landscape of 12 instances of “sitting down”, working as a frame for introspection and contemplation. I curated 4 music & sound events to take part inside the installation.

    Le barbare délicat

    Tentoonstelling / presentatie

    • 18-09-2021 t/m 09-10-2021
    • Locatie: Galerie Wind, Rotterdam
    • Le barbare délicat is an installation(video&sound) I created for the 'Karel Appel Inspiratie' group exhibition at galerieWind showcasing 50 local artists. Although being known as an abstract-expressionist painter, Karel Appel (1921-2006) composed the album 'Musique Barbare' (1963) for a documentary made on himself by cinematographer Jan Vrijman. I manipulated both the video and its soundtrack in order to expose the hidden delicacy contrasting the 'barbaric' painting technique of Appel.
