  2025 en verder.... 

During covid I began to make jewellery, because performances stopped.  I enjoyed sharing them later.  Beauty does touch the soul deeply and connects us with our best-selves.

Now I am slowly going back into singing, in groups like European Friends orchestra  & singers. We just did Brahms Requiem and Magnificat, both moving music.

 Slowly I also return again to some solos with diverse musicians. Before covid I was used to sing a lot of inspiring Lieder and songs with gifted collegues in small settings, great to feel it returning. 

Meanwhile I have been doing research which led to writing a movie script called Elegancy in times of religious wars. Where did that come from?

A search for the divine feminine!

 For twenty years I did a lot of historical European research for plays that were performed in my country. Often female queens were important figures on stage/semi opera.  This time I felt I needed to build a bridge more globally. Suddenly the goddess Lakshmi showed up and connected French history  with the India movieindustry. I learned so much, because I did not know anything about it!  I 'm  now seeking a way to get the funny and lively script  into the right hands. It needs a bit of trust and patience. There were a lot of Synchronicitie  already!

I'm also involved in organizing a local Pasar Malam with Indonesian people in the neighbourhood.  (When my son gets children, they will be half-Indonesian.)

I made lots of small watercolours during my researches, especially in France and at the seaside near The Hague.

I'm working on a new sculpture, that will be part of the exhibition in spring 2026 with the cultural platform of Soest
