BIO
As a visual artist I bring together practice and reflection, using installations, essays, workshops and collaborative projects to question how art might create space for shared experience and ethical thought. Alongside my practice I teach at St. Joost School of Art & Design and conduct research at the Centre of Applied Research for Art, Design and Technology (CARADT), and I work collectively as part of YAFF.

This
artwork is inspired by the transformation and spatial development of a natural
area near Vessem. In this process, the river has been restored to a meandering
course after being straightened since the 1970s due to intensive agriculture,
which disrupted the natural landscape. The Fundament represents human
impact on the landscape. The steel map weaves together the old and new river
courses. This two-part artwork comprises an engraving, created during the
workshop A Thinking Landscape with various stakeholders and an object
made of stainless and corten steel that reflects both the transformation and
the landscape’s memory.
