HiHowAreYou?- I was cleaning my corner of the atelier before the xmas holidays. A friend surprised me with a visit and cared to see my paintings. I've met her a few times during our theoretical courses. She has a bright face and watery eyes. When I showed her 'Colorfield sanctuary', she commented that the geometrical pattern reminded her of tiny doors leading to different unforeseen worlds. About a month later we ran into each other and I thanked her for giving me that new insight to my work. It initiated a serie of works where I play with the concept of one story being captured in another story.
'End credits' basically is a view of a nocturnal sky. Dark clouds above a lonely hill reveal intergallactic mechanics, robots and spaceships. They hover over our planet and check if we're o.k. I call them the 'godfathers'. Coming to this point in the process of the painting, I began to feel liberated. How easily I could be the eyes of the 'godfathers' and register an examplenary scenario of the human nightlife. The result of my thoughts I would then project in light signals. Restless souls try to find peace. He's taking a good night walk. She's picking flowers. She's painting and she's reading. I'm tired by the end of this painting; I portraited myself in a sleeping status.
