Summer Game
Synopsis: There is a group of three friends that understand
each other very well and have lots of fun together.
They meet up a lot and in one of those encounters one of them comes up with an idea of a play. We follow their preparations as they start to plan and get closer to the final moment. They go over the last minute details, but as they laugh it seems more and more that they don’t understand their actions. In the end they decide to go ahead with their plan, and they put it into action. Within a short time they are back home.
But was it the final rehearsal or the real thing?
Eye See Video Installation
Eye See is a minimal installation; there are three
monitors in a white space. The watchers are surrounded by an obsessive sound and followed by eyes. They should start to feel oppressed, aggressed, anxious, overwhelmed and more aware of their actions. It is a metaphor for the city, where eyes are following you and you’ve lost intimacy, comfort and a conscience of your being. The aggressiveness of the city is condensed into a space which will hopefully absorb all the adverse thoughts and help those who forgot to think to do so, and those who think to continue to do so and to put a small part of their being to work to give something good to society. The concept is that we all have eyes and we can see what is going on around us and we can choose to do something or not. Where there is an entrance there is an exit.

Get the perfect me Video Installation
Get the perfect me
Synopsis: The colours of nature, the blue and the green, bring
out what is best in anyone. The music is alive like the wind; deep breathing should be something that can help any individual survive in a city. On the voyage from nature to city, a small corner where you can see nature in the form of a plant, which is unfortunately dead, is encountered. In the end all fades out like a dream, with a last look over the sea, a sea that was so blue and clear in the morning and that, back in the city, can let you dream.
Wait for me
A video for me is a moving painting. I enjoy using transparency through the use of different layers, all elements, drawings, images are assembled like in brash strokes of paint. My intention is to achieve a video comparable to something hand made, more natural and closer to real emotions and profound ideas. Most of the elements used in each video come from a profound introspection, with the deep desire for evolution and growth. It is a search in which I incorporate images from my life’s journey, I try to create my own poetics and symbolism. There are many recurring elements and themes all connected to a life’s journey. What I associate here are the elements of loneliness and togetherness, the need of the one or the other to be caught up in different states of desire, need/wanting/wait. The view of the sea is seen as a primordial element but always pierced by a boat that is the expression of life’s journey and also of its passing, it represents the transitional element into the two worlds. The mountain and the rock express the stability, the other primordial energies that the earth gives us are there, it is also our propulsion force. All reflections and projections of different states of waiting are condensed in the wait to make a next step. Despair and hope are both parts of the same journey. The mystery of life is the carousel which we all board and discover a secret and find innocence and butterflies. It can also be quite confining, like a fish that tries to escape his cup and goes deeper into the water but we all wish to see enlightenment in the end of a pyramid. All can be at peace, with trees and blue sky and people make children and children make hopes. Maybe the city can become a different fresco or a more delicate Japanese stamp. It is all recreated through creativity and the need to invent and finding the right way to use it. As angels can guide us we should just learn to listen.
