About Me

Hallo! I'm an art practitioner who recently graduated. At the moment, I'm trying to put together different artistic projects while making a move back to Asia.

Practice and research are part of my work by theorizing and philosophizing of art, life, politics, the global order and economy. Aside from the serious stuff, I am generally quite chilled. I am definitely the outdoorsy type when its the time to. While indoors, beers and good music makes an evening more bearable!

*i won't have a home until 2018, don't write to me unless you happen to be in either Seoul, Beijing or Jakarta.*

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have traveled to many places since 2009. Now, traveling is also part of my work as an art practitioner. Therefore, it is natural that I also extend my help once in awhile to help some people out there. Meeting people (once in awhile) from all corners of the world, understanding and learning about different languages, lifestyles and cultures, can be a rewarding experience. Therefore, I believe this will — in one way or another — help me to broaden my knowledge on life and deepen my art making process.
