inner script
In the summer of 2017, I started creating small embroidered pieces exclusively using yarn in black, white and grey. By creating almost one every day, they evolved into a kind of diary – a series of around 300 silent reflections on my moods, thoughts and musings. I called this series Summer Diary. During the pandemic, I decided to follow up on these works by creating larger pieces. This resulted in the series Inner Script. I displayed these pieces across the wall of my studio in a cloud formation, just as I had done with the small Summer Diary. In the summer of 2022, I created an installation incorporating these pieces and a few additions called Meandering Thoughts, which I refined in 2024.

... Concentric circles are like thoughts that fan out, circles on the water after throwing a stone… Eyes look around, they behold the world, closed eyes look in… Lines form connections, hairs show intertwining and entanglement… Holes refer to that which is forgotten or not visible… A bird reminds me of idiosyncrasy or being beautifully different… A veil can protect, but also hide… Being in the now… My mind wanders… Past and future merge with the present… Meandering thoughts… A resource… Daydreaming, associating, searching, creating… My process of working… A way of living in a feverish world ...

Transparent embroidery in polyester yarn, in whites, grays and blacks, 285x300x2cm.

The parts of the installation hang a few centimeters from the wall,
so that shadows, spaciousness and a vulnerable lightness are created.
