2024 Project "5 minutes for 5"
The position of women in society is one of my main interests. Does her role correspond with her nature. Can she combine love and aggression at a time many women serve in military? To what extent can a woman submit, what does her femininity mean? I am searching for the core of humanity!
For this serie I made 12 paintings in large and small formats, oil on canvas, 14 drawings and 4 ceramic objects. The composition of most paintings is made up of many figures to understand the relationship, dialogue and rhythm, between the shapes and to create an emotional atmosphere which matches the theme.
These paintings are a celebration of diversity in all its forms. Through vibrant and complex colors, bold brushstrokes and a playful composition, I invite the viewer to embrace the richness of different perspectives. Every line, place, brushstroke is imbued with the woman's emotion and meaning. Together they form a harmonious unity emphasizing its power.
2023 Project "Second Skin"
This project was my nine-month process of studying modern society, trying to understand and reveal the essence of the new generation, decorating their body in a permanent way.
Tattoo - what is it? Why one does it? Is it just a body decoration or a symbol?
I went from one tattoo studio to another, watched the process of drawing by a master, saw how a needle pierced the skin with a black thread, plunged into this silence and waited for a wail of pain. I was intrigued by the symbols: a shell - fertility, a star - light, a golden dragon - the head of the clan, a knife - power, two eights, ...
I made about 30 oil paintings of portraits, small and large format. “Face and dough” was the name of the short film I made of this subject.
2022 Project "Investigation into chlorofyl"
In this project she puts herself forward as an artist/investigator of chlorophyl (leaf green) which is a photosynthetic pigment) through paintings, installations and video arts. Her interaction, dialogue and co-operation with biology enables her to analyse different views,different attitudes towards nature, as well as to find common features (characteristics) in the way nature is studied (observed).
This project bridges the gap between abstract thinking and esthetics. In this exhibition science and art served as a source of inspiration for each other.
All my paintings were painted in open air, where the artistic search for chlorophyll is carried out through the emotional perception of shades of green, light, the length of shadows and the relationship of forms.
An installation focused on the biolab, where the scientific study of chlorophyll and genetics is carried out.
Besides paintings and an installation, I made also a short film.
2021 Project "Glaciology"
Glaciologie is de wetenschap die sneeuw en ijs bestudeert. Ik heb alle landschappen in de natuur geschilderd waar de sneeuw lag. Voor mij is dit een uitweg uit de comfortzone, ik wil de sneeuw ruiken, de vele kleuren ervan zien, dit is een zoektocht naar een dialoog met schaal, veelzijdigheid, diepte Dit is de reïncarnatie van indrukken uit het landschap tot een artistiek beeld.
Glaciology is the science which studies snow and ice.
All the snow landscapes were painted in nature. In this way I went out of my comfort zone, smelling the snow, see its many colors, touch it, feel its depth, … a kind of dialogue. The result is the reincarnation of impressions from this landscape into an artistic image on oil paintings.
2020 Project "A rabbit window"
The year of self-isolation. I make a painting, create an installation, make a book... Without beginning or end, I was cut off instantly and I only had 12 windows left. I drew everything I saw through these holes in the wall. I studied every corner, demolition, dent on the facades of remote houses, roofs, walls, windows, flowers on the windowsills, but no people around...
2019 Project "Graphic image of the human voice"
The subject which interests me here is how close one can get to connect with nature or being a part of it. Is it possible to be completely one with nature. When I paint a landscape, do I break through the wall between us or do I just watch the light falling on the trees? By putting a mask on my face and covering my body completely with tissues, I protect myself from the sun, light, heat or protect myself from the network, and you?
For the execution of this project I use alternative materials: packaging cardboard as a base for my paintings, sand for the floor, drawings and my own literary texts. The relief cardboard makes it possible to write very broadly and create an optical effect, academic drawings testify to a careful study of nature and literary texts complement the verbal emotional code of this project. By combining different techniques, opposing thoughts, different attitudes towards man and nature, I activate my project, like the pulsating polarities of an electric machine.
