Get in touch
My new expo @paperartanddesign together with the beautiful work @loesschepens
What was one of the most normal things, touch, suddenly became strange, during the pandemic. There was a desire for each other's attention and the abnormal became normal.
How the hostile conditions in the world are now palpable adds another layer: Now that we can enrich ourselves again with art and culture, with going out and dancing, is it okay to enjoy that? When you know that so near people are living in fear and losing what they love overnight.
With my new series I do not have the answer to this, I am also wavering in it. With my work in the exhibition “Get in touch” I want to show my hope. That although it feels strange and awkward, we do do the difficult interweaving together.
Big thanks @annemiekvanduin for writing and editing my text
G E T I N T O U C H
This weekend my new expo will start @paperartanddesign
It’s a new series of works combined with the beautiful paper works @loesschepens
Topic of the expo ‘Get in touch’
Now, after two years of distance we may be closer again, we may begin to intertwine with each other. But perhaps we falter now, as we figure out again what the relationships are like. Where the boundaries were first clearly visible, they are now shadowy and we are trying to rediscover them. Interweaving and touching can even feel tense and sometimes like a struggle.
Come and see! Expo will start next saturday 02nd of April from 12 - 17.
I will be present ✨
Big thanks @annemiekvanduin for editing and writing my text
And there are more…all landed on this pretty yellow wall @goedmanlijstenmakers

These war trauma’s will continue in the next generations…
Stop the violence, stop the deception, stop lying, stop Russia
Illustration I made a while ago to show that you need years of love to forget the trauma of war, it will be passed to the next generation. @verwonderzoek
Still making birds for my special expo @goedmanlijstenmakers
Where the birds will get the most beautiful frames with handpicked wood.
Looking forward to see them all together.
It’s always good to keep your own situation in perspective
Take that leap of faith
Even when it turns you all upside down
I need some energy these days.
Working on my new series of collages, my head full with thoughts and even a bruise on my hand of my scissor.
So today no studio, cake with a friend and a stroll in the forest. Maybe going to the movies or reading a book.
Next week lots of fun stuff…
My birds will fly @coletteboekhandel expo in the display, finding some frames for my other bird expo and working on new collages and some lovely assignments.

I dream of a big studio with a large table and walls to fill with sheets of paper.
Last week I started with new works for an exhibition. Always an exciting moment, does what I have in my head work.
Soon will show you some new things, fingers crossed.

Sometimes I look for hours to find the perfect discoloration in the paper to cut.
My studio filled with old books and book pages. Kind a sorted on colour, pattern and size.
And it feels so nice to find the right paper for the right shape 🙌
Hiding for Christmas. 70 x 100
When i was a child I loved it, the lights the tree, cards, Christmas songs.
But when you get older it’s something else, it does not help my birthday is the 2nd day.
So what I do every year I hide away.. this year to lovely Antwerp.
Still working on this on! Doubting about how to fill the scarf. Pencil drawing, empty or maybe paper shapes… let’s see. 70 x 90 cm
I am so happy my book is here.
It’s a leporello full with birds 🦆🦅🦉
