Swan Lake

Explanation:  The last act in Swan Lake is the struggle against death. Combining a hard metal like bronze with the softness of feathers, helps to soften an already harsh reality.

ego.jpg (6934 bytes) ego_brons_1.jpg (33402 bytes) ego_brons.jpg (67132 bytes)
Title:
Ego (Demonstrational model)
Created: 2004 - 2005
Size: (Original 13x13x13 cm) 1 meter high and larger
Available: Unique Piece to be made under assignment 
Explanation: A connection between mankind, architecture and cubism in one single combination. As I am an artist of Rotterdam, the cubic houses being a place of interest, were inspirational for this sculpture. The perception of this form changes with every shift in stance because of the two different sized cut-away sections. Playing with form is the foundation of this creation and was critical to all the abstract sculptures I made after this. I would really like to see this sculpture in a larger size, placed on a location in the open air.

  driehoeksverhouding.jpg (11736 bytes) driehoeksverhouding_brons.jpg (80184 bytes)
Title: "Triangular Relationship" (Demonstrational model)
Created: 2004 - 2005
Size: (Original 16x29x18 cm) 1,5 meters high and larger
Available: Unique Piece to be made under assignment 
Explanation: Playing with line and form is part of my creative process, so I used the first basic cubic form to elaborate and created another sculpture. By combining several of the cubic in a non logical joining, they visualize the unbalance in human triangular relations, while keeping the architectural balance. By cutting into the points of one of the cut-away sections of both cubic, they each gain 3 triangular surfaces. Joining these surfaces, I created a triangular relationship in coexistence with a cubic form. Every triangular human relationship is logically out of balance, this work therefore gives the onlooker the feeling that the sculpture may tip over at any moment. 
I would really like to see this sculpture in a larger size, placed on a location in the open air.

Title: Character (Demonstrational model)
Created: 2004 - 2005
Size: (Original 26x47x18 cm) 1,5 meter high and larger
Available: Unique Piece to be made under assignment 
Explanation: Again using the basic cubic "Ego" I built in balance onto this form until slowly the sculpture of Character came into being. I already visualize this nearly floating sculpture, surrounded and reinforced by water, as a sculpture or building.
