Something has detached or suddenly become separated. Is something new emerging here or is it the incompatibility of two polarising units? Like a rift between two continents, everything is in a continuous state of change. Tensions create cracks, not only on the surface of the earth, but within us, with us and between us
In my
works, I try to transform the exploration of mechanically or rhythmically
created traces, the creation of which takes a long time, into a textile
language.
Embedded in erosion processes, microcosm and macrocosm are constantly
exposed to erosion, decay, ageing and metamorphosis. These processes form
reliefs with a unique history.
The palpability of the surfaces created in this way can be seen in the
plastic shaping of special surface designs in the "whole cloth" works
and in the distinctive, biomorphic 3D objects.
Layer by layer, thread by thread, a new interpretation of the original
idea is created. The reduction to playing with black and white contrasts is for
me the direct access to an emotional form of expression.
Through the artistic process I try to better understand my thoughts and
feelings and hope that the viewer finds access to this personal journey.
Something has detached or suddenly became separated.
these two objects can be seen in Leiden
