My paintings are my reality. I observe people in the public space. It’s the body language, the movement and group-dynamics that I find interesting. Body language shows personality, desire, boredom, belonging, doubt. In the public space people create natural compositions. I like this dynamic, this part of humanity. My paintings are about seeing, understanding and combining people in a storytelling composition.
Street-art/graffiti gives my work the opportunity to have a direct interaction with people in the public space, to act like a mirror. I come from a background in sculpture, photography and film. For more info click here.

“Between People” gaat over hoe we tot elkaar verhouden in de publieke ruimte en de dagelijkse omgang tussen mensen. Het grootste gedeelte van onze tijd bevinden we ons tussen de mensen. We zijn continue bezig deze interacties, onze communicatie en verwachtingen te begrijpen en een plek te geven. “Between People” laat mijn fascinatie zien voor de onderlinge verhoudingen, lichaamstaal en dynamiek tussen mensen. In mijn schilderijen neem ik de tijd menselijke interacties te observeren en bewust te worden van de dynamiek van het leven.
