Extended Travels
Acrylic and acrylic ink on raw cotton, 2023. Each ca. 210 x 250 x 30 cm + fixture.
Each piece consists of five fabric sheets that are draped over a horizontal cherry wood bar.
I made these three pieces for Big Art 2023, a pop-up platform for XL artworks and huge design objects. It took place in October 2023 at the Bajeskwartier in Amsterdam. Almost 6000 visitors came to see the show.
“I traveled. I saw, was moved, and wanted to experience it myself.
In that experience, I traveled, saw, was moved, and wanted to
experience another layer. And so I traveled.“
During Wordbites’ Silent Poetry Disco, we were able to capture many beautiful comments.
