All collages are handmade, simply with scissors, glue, old magazines and brochures. A cut-up fairytale world, multilayered, cheerful with a sharp edge. Inspired by colourful sixties figures, Brussels surrealism and child memories. Mixed with ecological, society critical or feminist hints. Words placed associatively that collide or attract.
Like a ‘Green Fairy’ fluttering on absinthe, but always with lots of love.
Femme Fatale: The Power of Mystery and Allure
The Femme Fatale, a figure of both fascination and caution, has been a recurring archetype across art, literature, and film for centuries. Her allure lies in her seductive charm, independence, and often her ability to manipulate or outwit those around her. Representing a mix of enchantment and danger, the Femme Fatale challenges societal norms, captivating with her beauty, wit, and mystery
Silke Krohn (The Age of Collage)Collages can separate things that belong together, unite the disparate; it can maximize artistic freedom but can also mean limitations; it can be a political pamphlet, pure fantasy or more realistic than reality.
