rose Sculpture

I was born in the South of Holland(Brabant) where I followed the Art Academy in Tilburg. At present living and working as an artist in Amsterdam. I am a serial artist: During a certain period I am caught up in a special theme. I make a group of objects, close to each other in ambiance and material. (like the drapery fiberwood amongst others). There is a period of attendance, bloom and decay. In the decay faze my interest shifts gradually to a new theme, a different material. This all within an over arching way of thinking. As I am moving forward in a stream of awareness, by-products are seceded all the time; by-products in the appearance of art; by-products that make statements about this brutal life, which is above all very strange. Statements in the matter, memories from special moments, in order to forget nothing and to capture them forever. Like an ever growing metaphysical library kept by industrious monks. In addition to that, to reveal the worlds that the mind’s eye has seen in the dreamtime. The inner part of the mind. Imagine, all those hidden worlds we all carry inside of us, it nears infinity. To this purpose I made a series of short movies that can be watched on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCKDRw0KBj2twf6rIZAOMQw
