From 17 till 25 May ''Acts of unpredictability'' took place in Younik Gallery in Arnhem (NL). 10 works were at display. On one sculpture (Leoninus Plastoid) I worked outside the gallery with my 3D pencil.
A passer-by
8 - 12 May 2024 - During the 2024 edition of the biennial art festival StadtpARTie in the German city of Eibeck I exhibited my latest sculptures in the basement of the local paintshop Farben-Schrader. In the same venue I created the light sculpture ''Fundamentum Plastoid (2017 - 2019). A total of 10 works were at display.

Gurgite - 2024
Another work was sold yesterday in Paulus Noomen/Younik Gallery in Arnhem! It is a sculpture called ''Supra Vi Plastoid'' (2023). It will find a new home in Amsterdam. The Younik Gallery can be found at Klarestraat 24 in Arnhem, NL. +31-6-14141156
This week Erexit Quadratum Plastoid - 2022/2023 (yellow version) was sold to an enthusiastic couple, living in Arnhem, The Netherlands. Yesterday I brought the work to their home and it becomes part of a very tastefully decorated house! I am delighted!
The result at the customers house. In consultation with the customer, a yellow and a red filter have been added to the light.

This neat little guy arrived in the USA. It found a save haven in a house of a friend.
I am working on a new version of the Snail Language Translator Device. The first version I made was during the Galichnik residency in Macedonia in 2015. This new sculpture/installation will be shown during the SOUNDSCAPE exhibition in Arnhem, Ecologische Tuin, Prins Hendrikstraat 49 - 51, September 16 and 17.
A while ago I found a tree on a leaf
New work! "Erexit Quadratum Plastoid", approx. 50 x 50 x 20 cm, built on a 45 year old Philips ceiling fixture with round fluorescent (replaced by an LED one). Material: thermoplastic (heat glue) + acrylic resin dispersion. Color difference in the photos is due to automatic white balance of my phone.
In 2018 I worked on an artwork with the title ''Plastoid Cell Projector (PCP)'', 40 x 40 x 40 cm. Its a sculpture/installation in which I can project slides made of transparent PLA, Polylactic acid, also known as poly(lactic acid) poly, lactic, acid or polylactide. It is a thermoplastic polyester with backbone formula (C
3H
4O

n or [–C(CH

The slides for the PCP are made by hand with a 3D pencil in the classical 6 x 6 cm format. At the top left of the installation you see a stack of 6 x 6 transparencies.
Over the past 10 years I have worked in many different temporary studios. You sometimes end up in bizarre and remarkable places, such as here in a former bed factory in Deventer, The Netherlands. I could skate there and it was very cold in the winter. By the way, I advise everyone not to work in temporary spaces. You have to keep moving with your stuff over and over again, and that's kind of dramatic in my case. Moving is a disaster. Fortunately, I now have a permanent base.
The Snail Language translator Device was made during the Galichnik art residency in Macedonia.
During the 10 days of this residency I made several photo series and one sculpture, the above called device.
LOOK BACK: 1985
Here is one of the first spatial works I made at the art academy in Arnhem (NL), back in 1985.
Curved metal and prepared cotton, about 3 meters high. For a photo I put it on the fountain within the Blue Waves (Blauwe Golven) art work in Arnhem, made by Peter Struycken in 1977.
While making this work I seriously injured my hand a week before. A wire of metal whipped as I bent and cut deep into the heel of my left hand, right through the glove. The scar is still there. I looked into deep white flesh, whereupon my legs went limp like chewing gum. I seem to have been knocked out for a moment, because when I opened my eyes I saw the workshop assistant busy with a bandage. A wet cloth lay on my forehead. He was also kind enough to drive me to the emergency room at the hospital. A whopper of a tetanus shot in my thigh and then I was out of 'mortal danger' again 😉.
Here's a look back at my first smaller sculptures (approx. 30 - 40 cm), made 3 years ago from ultra-light PLA thermoplastic material. They are handmade with a 3D pen with a clear nod to the 3D printer. The material PLA used comes from the ''3D printer'' as a filament (wire), but I apply this purely analogously, without the intervention of a computer, building line on line. At the moment I am working on larger sculptures. The material I used in 2020 is (semi) transparent. They are sculptures that can be illuminated, i.e. light that falls on them plays through the material.
