About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find out how I want art to be, and first to see every place, just learn and get wild

ABOUT ME

Joyful: the chaos, painting, videos, draw, think, write, traveling, thinking about the latter, summer in Berlin, cosy Antwerp and this tiny world to discover with all it's wonderful people

PHILOSOPHY

Some days, I think I'm swimming without purpose in this gigantic sea, with no-one having a purpose or a clue, doesn't mean it's not worth it, and on the other hand sometimes everything has a purpose
You only live once

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

riding in a polish forrest on a horse, in the fastest galop, at night without seeing where I'm going

eating sausage on a hill in south france with bread and the sun

sitting in a thiny kajak on a river and falling out
meeting a stranger while waiting for a train and talking for three hours straight

being on an idyllic island in Asia with no traffic, it was that small, and only the sunset as a view

climbing vulcano's in Indonesia
