Making a new work with Textiellab
09/08/2022
A long awaited wish to make a work with textile is coming true! Right now I’m working on a tapestry from an image of my project To pick up a stone in collaboration with product developer Lotte van Dijk at Textiellab.
It’s marvelous get a glimpse of what it entails to make a tapestry and I’m stunned by the possibilities of textile! After researching and sampling days we’re almost ready for production of the tapestry. After that I will be making it into an installation work.
Many thanks to Lotte for the great collaboration. Also a lot of thanks to Kunstloc Brabant and Provincie Noord-Brabant for granting me funding (Perspectiefbudget) to make this work possible.

Review on C4 Journal by Eugenie Shinkle
"To Pick Up a Stone is a study of perception itself – of the nature of our engagement with the world, of the way that photography mediates this engagement, and of the way that the camera, the image and the book form can work together to capture the full intensity of perceptual experience." — Eugenie Shinkle
