The project ‘If paradise is half as nice 2′ was presented in Berlin a week after the presentation in Leipzig. The location was the exhibition space of Atelierhof Kreuzberg, a completely different surrounding then the original location in Leipzig and therefor a totally other presentation, based on the same works.
‘If paradise is half as nice’ is a project initiated by Pim Palsgraaf and Daan Botlek. This year me, Willem Besselink and Braam Braam had the honour to be part of the second edition of the event that takes place in an abandoned factory in Leipzig.
‘Asbestos I’ is a work that came to existence during the ‘As paradise is half as nice’ project in Leipzig.
‘Out of the white cube (Remains/Stolen footage)’ is a series of work that came to existence during the ‘As paradise is half as nice’ project in Leipzig. The works are a follow up of previous works that I have made and have the same subtitle.
During the ‘Verborgen Tuinen 2013′ event, I created a closed hatch at the garden of a housing block in Charlois, Rotterdam. This hatch could be a way to pass to another space, basement, tunnel or whatever. But in the meantime it is also an exit from such a space to the garden. What it really is we will not know, because the hatch appears to be locked tight!
‘Because it’s written’ is a show I’ve put together for the South Explorer Festival in Charlois at the Wolfart Projectspaces. The show presents works by eleven artists that use text in their visual art works on a regular basis.

In January I had the honor of hosting ‘De Derde Disdag’, a monthly talk show about the cultural activities in Rotterdam. This short documentary is made by Marieke van der Lippe and ‘De Derde Dinsdag’ is an initiative by a group of cultural institutes in Rotterdam.
A quote from Guus Vreeburg on my work:
“OOK TIES TEN BOSCH MET EEN ELEGANT-MAAR-SNOEIHARD COMMENTAAR OP DE WERELD-VAN-KUNSTENAARS-ONDERLING; WERK DAT HIJ MAAKTE UIT AFVALSCRAPS DIE HIJ ALS KUNSTENAAR-BOUWPLOEGWERKER VERZAMELDE TIJDENS HET INRICHTEN VAN TENTOONSTELLINGEN VAN WDW-KUNSTENAARS…”
