underwater:
a world distorted
that we know
inverted
what seemed solid
becomes fluid
fleeting in layers
like a murky negative
topsy-turvy
the deeper, the darker:
underworld
In 2021 I got a grant (Impulsregeling zzpers) from the Fonds voor Cultuurparticipatie to expand my knowledge of lithography. To benefit both my own practise as well as the Grafische Werkplaats where I work as a technician. Jurjen Ravenhorst gave me a mastercourse in lithography and with his help I spend a year developing my litho printing skills. Experimenting with printing on textiles like cotton and silk and with printing in layers, I created a series called ‘Underworld’ that was presented in the Grafische Werkplaats in September-November 2022. It is still an ungoing series.
