A lot of my work is project based, as well in my free work as in the work I do for the art academy HKU.
I work most of the time at different projects at the same time.
If I focus too much on one thing I get bored and distracted.
The mix of different media and exploring your possibilities and ways of expression is what interests me most.
For me it has always been a combination of music, singing and art.
It always has been about multi media, mixed challenging.
For me this is an honest way of working.
Not showing the limitations but showing versatility.
I have a perfume line, its about smells, people, places and seduction.
I have sang in a lot of places and have been singing in several bands: A.o: The Jaarbeurscongreszaal Utrecht, Stadsschouwburg Utrecht, De Melkweg Amsterdam, Paradiso Amsterdam, with De Utrechtse Operette, La Shouffe, Carmine Red, and The Golden Years Show. Its about sound, atmosphere, people, places stories and seduction.
I worked for, with: Margarete van Dam, Bis Majeur, Crossing Border, HKU-KMT, Born Digitral etc. etc.
I have done Mail-Art, Book Art, artists book with artists from all over the world.
I wrote a prompters play, and did Dramaturgy at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, besides photography and painting and making Installations.
I made a 6 hrs. movie of artists working on the last exhibition of the Fodor Museum.
I went back to study at the HKU as I was fascinated by the possibilities that computers had.
I always make photo’s and always draw in my dummies.
I think about art and music and making concepts and creating beautiful things.
This is my life….
Henk.
