I am a contemporary artist from the south of the Netherlands. In my work the experience is important, I always like to look at the poetry of the ordinary.

Looking around, at nature and culture, in every sense, I experience being so touched by life itself. I see so much beauty in nature, in people. Beauty in things people make en at the same time the ugliness.

I try to understand and to hold on to it. I cling onto it in order to understand where things come from, why we do them, why do we make particular choices? Why do I make particular choices?

I see the evolution of humankind and what we cause, destroy, but also the things we make and the quantity of it.

From everything, that already exists, I want to create and tell stories…
