Today I had the great honor of receiving the first copy of Fleur Benz’s book “Zand erover”.

According to the author, my artwork, Untitled ( #73), crept into the story early on and got her thinking. “A floral still life that reminded me how beauty and transience always go hand in hand,” Benz says.

The story is also very funny, exciting, and a pleasure to read. Highly recommended for Sinterklaas and/or Father Christmas!

It’s almost time again: is taking place again. are exhibiting my work for the twelfth year in a row.

IIn Untitled ( #217), I explore the theme of paradise. Fig leaves with pink peppercorns, blood red poppies and the nearly extinct white common bedstraw (Galium sylvaticum) fill the Japanese vase. On the table lies a split fig, revealing its soft flesh. And do I see a snake crawling between the apple and the fig?.

This new work also features, for the first time, flowers I photographed during the field trips I undertook with . These flowers are endangered and are therefore on the Red List.

In addition to my own work, the gallery is also showing works by .laperre, , , and, for the first time, Schlegel.

PAN Amsterdam will be held from November 1st to 9th at the RAI Amsterdam (Hall 8).
