This installation was to be seen at the group-exposition of Open ateliers Nieuwmarkt in the Zuiderkerk ,Amsterdam.
It left the spectators puzzled .
The body of the waiter with wine-cooler rotates in 30 sec. clockwise and the birds in flock  flying above the wine-cooler rotates with the same speed anti-clockwise and appear to be motionless .Art meets technic .Inside are two window display-rotate platforms and a hand-build gearbox that reverse the rotate-direction.
 Here I tried to make a discrepancy between what you see and what you expect.The sculpture is made  partly out of found objects , stuff out of the window-display shop but most of all : my fun in manipulate and connect objects which have no relation with each other at first sight .

Self-taught artist . After study and a few years roaming the planet I settled in an Amsterdam squadhouse early eihgties .Even back then it was an exiting and living town . Playing in bands and working as (light & sound) technician for theatre- and dancegroups got me in touch with , and generated my interest in Arts . It didn't take long before I started making art myself .At first drawings and paintings , and eventually also 3-dimensional objects and installations .
