art is about many things. things that relate to the world. our world is on fire. literally and metaphorically. our world is hurting. we are hurting. if as an artist you can’t reflect, engage, or take position on the things happening in the world then, your art is questionable. your being an artist is also questionable.

This is my proposal for graduation work from the Bachelor Fine Arts at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague taking place in July 2025. It is a large scale installation made out of human hair. Consists of two pieces: a hand-felted tapestry (300×170cm) and a collection of individual hair donations from 100+ persons (mainly women) who wanted to be part of this project. This work is experimental and entirely biodegradable.
