My work originates from an emotional concept in which personal subjects acquire a monumental value. It is mainly the cautious and almost invisible expressions of human vulnerability which fascinates me. Intuitively I search for those intimate moments where glances wander and empty hands are resting. I alter those moments into conceptual images wherein the value of the vulnerable is kept and cherished.
I live and work in Deventer (2023)
