ABOUT THE ARTWORK
In my most recent work I make optimal use of the power of color and the simplicity of form. With these two basic elements I can experiment and create endlessly, always looking for the perfect composition. During the creative process I constantly ask myself the question: "How do I achieve the balance that keeps me going and offers peace, but also gives new energy for movement?" The interplay between the colorful surface divisions results in a balanced and harmonious image that guides the viewer through the work in an organic movement. I use new self-painted paper, used paper and paper from packaging. The collage is glued to a wooden panel and coated so that dirt can be removed with a soft damp cloth.

“Where words are sometimes lacking, color and shapes fill that in for me. I play with it like a writer plays with sentences, or a cook with ingredients”. My work is a constant search for balance. I need structure, but I'm terrified of boring. To find a way around this I try to simplify the complexity of life through my art. What do I need now? What is superfluous? It is a constant game of adding & subtracting, of controlling & letting go. The framed shapes give me structure and tranquility. The colors create tension. This is how I try to create the perfect balance. It is a beautiful and sometimes complicated process. As a child I was already attracted by the dynamics of colors and planes. It is therefore not surprising that I attended the University of the Arts in Utrecht and graduated here in 1996. After that I started working as a fashion designer, stylist, designer and trend watcher. In all these disciplines I was also constantly working on color, form and composition. The love for this is simply in my DNA. Nowadays I work full time as an artist
