In my own artistic practice, the focus is on working from the HERE & NOW. I always encounter the body first. It is always there, and what happens in it has a massive influence on how I perceive my immediate surroundings, but also look into the future and past. Therefore, in my art, I look inside the body and use pencil and paint to describe what I find, as in a cartography.

This is the kind of drawing we offer participants in the Visual Consulting module of the curriculum. It allows for an intensive immersion in one’s own presence and the exploration of a spontaneous, intuitive line drawing. The searching line complements the participants’ drawing repertoire and gives them a method to move confidently in situations of exploration.
