Amsterdam Fund for the Arts development budget
I am very grateful that the AFK (Amsterdam Fund for the Arts) has chosen to support my current research with a development grant
The Photographic ceramic relief as a building skin
To explore application possibilities of my innovation the ‘Photographic Hammer’ in architecture, Creative Industries Funds NL has awarded me a starting grant. In the initial phase I experimented with engraving semi-finished facade panels from ceramic facade producers, developed new relief facade panels, and organized meetings with professionals in architecture to get feedback from the field. In the second stage of the project the aim is to create a pilot project on pavilion scale. Made possible by the generous support of Creative Industries Fund NL and NBK Architectural Terracotta.

Project ‘Triumph of the Garden’ at Shiryaevo Biennale, Samara, Russia
From 12-08/ 27-09 I will present my project ‘Triumph of the Garden’ at the Shiryaevo Biennale, Samara, Russia. Organised by NCCA Samara.
I intend to investigate dacha gardening as an aspect of Russian society that operates outside the financial system and in the process of doing so avoids the alienation of modern day consumers with nature. I will convert a dacha into a camera obscura by mounting a lens in the wall. In front of the lens, bathing in sunlight, a cabbage from the garden will be placed. Inside the projection of the cabbage is engraved in a surface of wet Volga clay using my invention the ‘Photographic Hammer’.
This project has been made possible by the generous support of Creative Industries Fund NL and the European Cultural Foundation
