I am very happy that I was able to take part in this beautiful photo shoot and be featured in the book dedicated to the 20th anniversary of @studioroof Over the past few years, I have been involved in carpentry, creating large and small props, and refining my painting skills along the way.
Also, I have collected as many stories as there is sawdust in my lungs.

Throwback to an earlier project from this year where the main protagonist, played by @bjorksemey , fell through the undergrounds. Also, a peek at my unwritten script, neatly sectioned by camera takes, thanks to the magic hands of @rollovanwijk
A summary of the summer during which I led workshops at Buitenkunst, drifting between two distinct yet undeniably connected spectrums: something brilliant, with the potential to become a complete masterpiece, yet at the same time infused with a healthy dose of nonsense.
From reworking my resume, capturing the nosy GLUURBUUR, and reorganizing the solar system, to a magic show in which Hans Klok performed his famous trick - sawing a person in half.
Not only that, we also built a tiny village for tiny people living in the northern pine woods. Ideally, this new society of little people would embody more progressive values, but in the end, it became a town ruled by a monarchical couple.
In the heart of the castle, public executions take place, performative events accompanied by the enthusiastic applause of tiny hands.
Last month, Cece and I spent a week @in_situ_polyculture - running uphill and downhill, changing directions and adjusting to unfamiliar temperatures in Fahrenheit.
We focused on the concepts of distance, measurement, and the balance between autonomy and interdependence. The question โWhere are we going?โ arose unexpectedly, triggered by a single wrong turn. The destination, once clearly defined, became ambiguous. Point A and point B began to blur- like correspondence lost in transit, stuck somewhere between sender and recipient.
This Saturday, June 14th, between 11:00 and 18:00, you can come check out the open studios!
For now, hereโs my very subtle wave
