A love for chairs and knives
A love for objects, especially the daily and banal ones
Those we use in the theatre of everyday life
Because there, nothing is done for the first time
we keep repeating
and are caught in routines
Everyday objects as companions
gliding through our hands
asking for our intentions
while telling us who we are
My work revolves around anthropological questions and everyday culture. I observe daily situations and objects from a distance. Attracted to the unusual in these
ordinary moments, I focus on habits and routines, moves and performances.
Our cultural norms are not self-evident to me. In the theatre of everyday life we are caught in patterns and repetitions while rarely questioning
the intentions behind.
Painting is about questioning what we really see in relation to what we expect and are used to seeing.
