Opening Solo Exhibition ‘Nurturing Space’

Thank you Isadora Campos for the lovely article on Casa Alto Paraiso in GPSLifetime. This issue of GPSLifetime is addressing 100 years of Bauhaus and the 59th anniversary on Brasilia. Casa Alto Paraiso is in good company, concerning content.

With material that was saved during the restauration of the old roman bath house, I created 4 panels that individually can be seen as abstract artworks and can be exposed in any position. Only when the 4 panels, are placed together in the right position, together they form the image of Lucius, the Roman potter whose work was found at the location of the Thermen Museum. The necessity of placing the ‘pieces’ of the artwork together in a certain way to see the larger picture refers to the work of the archeologists on site.

rom 2006 until 2016 I have mainly been creating and working in Brasil. My exposition at Moon Yoga Studio in Bergen NH, the Netherlands can be seen a ‘welcome back on this side of the Atlantic’ exposition. I created new series of Art.Chi.Textures, as most of my earlier work made in Brasil remains in Brasil. I found it interesting to present my Art.Chi.Textures first in a Yoga Studio, where people address the concepts ‘consciousness’ and ‘energy flow’, instead of a gallery.
