Ships in a Crate
Drawing: Charcoal, Conte, Pastel, Chalk on Wood. The Beachhouse is an expansive series of drawings and sculptures that display an organic architectural structure. Interior and exterior perspectives portray it at different stages of its mollusk-like "growth" and at different times of day. The changes that take place between these stages are seemingly undirected by human presence. It is an ever evolving entity, a ghosthouse, an empty shell that follows its own dreamlike logic. It was inspired by a dream in which I was walking through this house. I wanted to grasp the dark atmosphere and illogical changes of time and space that I experienced. Practical information: this drawing was made with chalk, pastel and charcoal (conte) on blackboard. The blackboard panel (mdf) is self supporting and can be hung on the wall with 2 screws. It has a frame around it to protect it from the sides and to be able to handle it, but the surface itself is not protected or covered by glass. The charcoal has been fixated but remains fragile so it's best to hang it somewhere out of reach of small children.

At the basis of all my work is a strong fascination for natural processes and phenomena. In the work these dramatic universal processes like isolation, expansion, transformation, growth and decay, but also their relation to our more everyday, at times banal reality, are interpreted in a personal, poetic and concentrated way. In the drawings I often freeze processes that the viewer can continue in mind or propose dystopic places and buildings built from (yet) unknown matter. In my installations and animations I can bring to life these processes and create a "wholeness" or story. Since 2004 I have been mainly focussing on the subject of architecture and building processes and their underlying ideals (or lack thereof). Associations with architectural proposals allow these works to enter a twilight zone between desire and reality that in turn raises questions about their function or meaning. On the one hand they can be seen as comments on our everyday surroundings and urban environment by proposing buildings that seem to be designed for the expression of discomfort, spirituality or a lack of ideology or function. In other works the strong links to the aforementioned natural or universal processes and their psychological paralels prevail and cause the proposed structures to be nothing more but representations of a particular state of mind or personality. I live and work in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. My work is exhibited and collected internationally.
