About
I make sculpture that starts on a screen and ends in a room. The modelling happens in software built for video games. The object is printed at full size and finished by hand. It is a fast, cheap and thoroughly unglamorous way to make something monumental, and I don’t think fine art has caught up with what it can do yet.
I was raised Christian. I am not anymore, and the imagery never left. Cardinals, popes, and the angels scripture actually describes — not gentle winged comforters but cosmic and monstrous things beyond comprehension. I am not trying to demolish that iconography. I am arguing with it. A papal throne with a woman on it the Church would never have allowed. A cardinal holding his phone in the awkward grip of anybody’s grandfather. A god with no eyes, because why would a god need them.
The work tends to end in the same place: grandeur collapsing into something ordinary, and staying interesting once it has.
I work from Rotterdam, where I took a BA in Fine Arts at the Willem de Kooning Academy between 2019 and 2023. For commissions, studio visits and press, see Contact.
New work, twice a year
No newsletter in the usual sense. I write when there is something finished, or something to come and see. Leave your email and that is all you will get.
