As a maker I question everyday situations.
By looking for absurdity within the normal
a new image emerges.
I play with the relationship human / object / pattern.
Plus I refer to the concept within the work.

A tribute to a monument that was previously used as a shelter for soldiers. However, nowadays the bunker was more used as a hiding place for the 16 year old smoker. Joints, candy wrappers from previous decades and the odd turd took over the atmosphere of this great one. I wanted to make a statement through the placement of the frame. By framing it, I turn it into a work of art.
My original plan was to clear the place of 16 year old stoners. A real war in which "The Bunker" is no longer seen as a tool, but rather as the goal. To ensure that the place remained clean and serene, I planned to turn the courtyard into an exhibition space. So that the neighborhood gained double benefit from it. However, some residents of the Fokkerweg in Lonneker did not agree. The Frame (the actual work of art) would be too dangerous and should be removed, according to them. They won that battle after more than six months and after months of consultation with all kinds of authorities, I have to throw down the battle frame.
