Since 1996 I have collaborated with Riek Sijbring and Femke Snelting under the name, De Geuzen: a foundation for multi-visual research. Our work has employed a variety of strategies to explore female identity, critical resistance, representation and narrative archiving.
Throughout my practice with De Geuzen, writing has been as important as the visual. Whether blurbs for announcers, slogans for stickers or critical essays and interviews for thematic projects, writing has not only been a vehicle of expression, but also a means of speculation. As our work migrated to online environments, I became fascinated by the potential of digital writing and the multiple expressions it takes in a variety of media.
In 2006 I received a scholarship from The Institute of Creative Technology to pursue a Masters in Creative Writing and New Media at De Montfort University. Having completed my degree in 2008, I'm now writing about anything that fascinates me.
Next to these activities, I have taught Fine Art at both the BA and MA level at the Willem de Kooning Academy and the Piet Zwart Institute (Rotterdam, The Netherlands). I am currently Assistant Professor at Bergen National Academy of the Arts (Bergen, Norway).
