ARTIST STATEMENT
As a multimedia artist, my work includes graphic techniques, murals, drawings, photography and spatial installations.
​
Flowers have a symbolic value for me of strength, comfort and inspiration. I use them as a metaphor for the circle of life, from growth process to transience. The stages of the flower are translated into image and material. The choice for permanent or temporary work marks transience or sticking to one moment. Dynamic patterns, contrasts and opposites show a process of uprooting, withering, restoring, growing and blooming. An appropriate format, in which physical actions are paramount, require delay and trust in the process.
I prefer to wander where the wind or sun takes me. Leading by wonder of nature. Like the 'uprooted' flower, I look for the right soil to root and bloom. Through my visual work I want to take you along to make this tangible and shareable.

Love,
Loes
