I’m a Dutch artist and illustrator living in Turin, Italy.

The moment one observes, a judgment is already there. We look at a situation or person with an expectation and an assumption. What if we allow ourselves time to observe longer? 

 

I investigate how people relate to themselves, the Other and their environment. I myself as a maker and the viewer are confronted with how we look, have expectations and judge. Can we delay our first interpretation, observe slowly and become more connected to everything around us?

 

Since 2015 I’m the co-founder of Dutch brand -Afternoon Stories-.
