Going on















Doing projects this size is a matter of going on working on it... At the end of this day a good ammount of reed is harvested and got all the poles in! Tomorrow I will start with the horizontal lines! Will be a lot of work anyway so it’s time to start that for sure. ‘Heb er veel zin in!’ realy looking forward to do so. Putting the poles in was already a composition and creative thing to do, together with hard labour. Making the wavy lines and fixing them onto the poles will be the real creating of my work. Thank volunteers of helping me during the day. The youngest today was about 2 years old!

About Me

My work is site-specific. Natural surroundings together with the social and historical context inspire me. With my sculptures I add an extra dimension to the location. I use for my installations topical natural material often combined with cultural material. Materials like willow, oak, plants and trees, and man-made material like concrete, metal and shrink film. Recurring themes in my work are tension, movement, water and light. The intervention of people and natural elements like wind or growth can be a welcome addition to my work. I like it when the public mixes with my work and experiences my installation together with its surroundings. In the end, I want my installations to fit in the site where they are built showing an extra dimension and giving a suprise to the beholder.
