Works as a visual artist. Mainly in painting and drawing and installations. The works are worked out in series, which are exhibited in a space, which is part of the work. Usually I try to make some kind of installations of the solo exhibitions I have. In recent years, I have also been working with the composer Anna Mikhailova to bring sound to the paintings and installations. Examples are the Pulsar project in the Ketelfactory in Schiedam and Stroom Den Haag, Silence sound (based on John Cage) Pulchri Studio in The Hague, the Noise Project (Edgar Varèse) Spanjaardshof and Haagse Kunstkring in The Hague (2016), Noisy Poetry Painting in Kadmium, Delft and Boogie Tone project (sound composition based on Piet Mondriaan music) in the Sint Nicolaïkerk in Utrecht. Also a project with composer Jerzy Bielski: Keerpunt in Galerie Sophie in The Hague and Project Medistation (2015) with artist Sha Yee Jin in De Spanjaardshof in The Hague.
