Work in progress; Cape


No title yet, but the work is about both sides of seduction, who is the 'seducer' and who is the 'innocent or fictim'. This work is based on the fairytail 'Little Red-ridinghood'. The outside of the cape, about the innocent girl is ready. Now I'm working on the inside cape which represents the 'wolf'.




First try-out of the blanket


I will let this work rest foor some days. I'm very much doubting about the suitcase.




New works


My house, blanket and a cape.
I'm working on several works at the same time. I try to combine them into one total work about 'finding your own way'.

'Home sweet Home'




Don’t fence me in


Today I installed 'Don't fence me in'. This work will be shown until September 7 at 'De Vishal", Grote Markt in Haarlem.
‘Don’t fence me in’
2009

‘Don’t fence me in’, is voor mij synoniem aan; ‘Vrijheid van meningsuiting’.
Vandaag de dag een beladen veelgebruikte term vanwege de onvrede, angst en woede die binnen onze samenleving heerst. Als vertolker van deze onderbuikgevoelens en de vrijheid van meninguiting is Geert Wilders een waar icoon. Vanwege zijn standpunten hebben zowel zijn voor- als tegenstanders hem op een voetstuk geplaatst.
Wilders gebruikt zijn haardracht als identiteitskenmerk, ik gebruik dit kapsel als icoon voor zijn optreden, wat ik theatraal en gedramatiseerd vind.

‘De Kleine Zaal’ met zijn beperkte, afgesloten ruimte gebruik ik als podium voor mijn installatie ‘Don’t fence me in’ (‘beperk mij niet’). Het geheel toont zowel de onaantastbaarheid- als de kwetsbaarheid van deze boodschap.
‘Vrijheid van meningsuiting’ is een persoonlijk recht. Niet iets waar politici mee aan de haal moeten gaan en zo gebruiken voor hun eigen politieke programma.
----
‘Don’t fence me in’, for me is synonymous with ‘Freedom of speech’.
Nowadays it is an emotionally charged, much-used term because of the dissatisfaction, fear and anger, within our society. The politician Geert Wilders became a true icon as the exponent of these emotions and the freedom of speech. Because of his opinions both his supporters and his opponents, have placed him on a pedestal.
Wilders uses his hair style as a ‘characteristic trademark’, I use this hairdo as a icon of his way of action, which I find theatrical and dramatized.

‘De Kleine Zaal’, a restricted, isolated space is used as the stage of my installation ‘Don’t fence me in’. This unity shows both the unassailability as well as the vulnerability of this pronouncement.
‘Freedom of speech’ is a personal human right. Not a slogan politicians use for their own political programme.





Don’t fence me in - Maquette


I'm making this installation for a show at 'de Kleine Vishal' in Haarlem. This work will be in the window from August 7 until September 7.




Home sweet Home


At last I'm getting there!




Still working on ‘Home sweet Home’


I think I have about 40 frames ready now.
