Her
theme is often indoor/outdoor which is enhanced by color, a window motif or
other designer elements. The search for balance is the resilience and challenge
for her work. The work process gives peace of mind on the one hand, but the
endless possibilities of textile art also create curiosity and tension.

Persephone sails with Charon – the ferryman- across the river Styx over and enters the realm of
ghosts, the
Hades, (search for the myth of
Persephone https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persephone_(mythologie) ).
The background is a black piece of fabric that is completely
machine-stitched with white thread and here and there a somewhat thicker
woollen, cotton or colored thread.
I walked into the realm of the dead with my love. He stayed there and i
had to leave again.Now I live as Persophene in two worlds. Now in the dark
kingdom of ghosts, then again on the cheerful Olympus that he and I built, and
am amazed that the world is flourishing again.
(Ik
liep met mijn lief het dodenrijk binnen. Hij bleef daar en ik moest het weer
verlaten. Nu leef ik als Persephone in twee werelden. Nu eens in het duistere
schimmenrijk, dan weer op de vrolijke Olympus, die hij en ik gebouwd hebben en
verwonder me dat de wereld toch weer bloeit. )

My work provided the crucial link between my interest
in textiles, art and architecture.
I get
inspiration from everyday topics and developed a recognizable style which enhances
the theme and has its own specific charisma.
For
me it is a challenge to make textile pieces of art with surprising
effects.
I would like to lead the spectator to a visual
confrontation. Whether the result is completely abstract or reality made abstract,
the meaning will become clear by itself. It is my expressive way of a story in
image
Even my studio is in Dordrecht the oldest city of
Holland.
My works travel all over the world. They can be seen
in museums, galleries, textile events, private institutions and of course
everyone can buy them.

Detail Reflect
My
work is designed to give a sense of place and mood, pared down to a simple
design element - the relationship of form and colour.
“Reflect”
- A time for stopping. A time to pause and reflect. To hold the moment, be oblivious
to the world around, and listen to oneself.
Take
a step back and focus on just one image - until the thought starts to break and
drift away
This work can be seen in Baarle Nassau.

Following
the period of intense painting and printmaking in the beginning of my artistic
career, for over thirty years now I have worked mainly with textiles since I
feel this best suits my mode of expression. The use of textiles allows me to
create a space whose dimensions I do not know when I start the work. I work
without defined boundaries, cutting, tearing and sewing the textiles so that
the size of the work is only determined on its completion. I work
instinctively, responding to the textures and marks on the materials. I
continue to display my works without frames, enabling them to appear without
borders.
I
use found textiles as the idea of recycling and reusing materials and giving
them new leases of life is something I very much enjoy. I take great pleasure
in hunting for different textiles which I then layer, mixing the opaque and the
transparent to create depth and three dimensional effect. I work with a variety
of media, drawing on the textiles with pencils, pastels, oil sticks and
acrylic. I often print directly onto the material too. This process allows me
to ‘excavate’ the layers of colour and form that belong to the textiles. The
repetitive act of sewing serves as a form of meditation in contrast to the more
spontaneous free expression of painting.

Since the dawn of time mankind has been making marks yo communicate - from signs and symbols in early cave paintings to spray-painted messages on urban walls. I love living in the city with the haphazard layers of overlapping posers, faded advertisements, notes of missing pets and cryptic graffiti. Seeing the fragmented traces of text on the walls, makes me wonder about the traces I myself will be leaving behind and how they will be interpreted.
I was a journalist before I became an artist so text and language continue to be my main source of inspiration. I like words, because of their graphic quality and because of their ability to convey meaning. I print and screen letters on fabric, and stitching has become a new way of writing for me. Stitching resembles the rhythm of writing with a pen - slow, intimate process during which one becomes aware of the marking of time.
My work is collage constructions. I usually combine cotton, linen, cheese
cloth and paper to which I apply a variety of surface design techniques,
including dyeing, painting, discharge, printing, screening and rusting.
I could be painting
with oil on canvas, but I like working in the textile medium, because of the
tactile quality and because of its association with women’s work and history.
