Trapped
A work around the feeling of being stuck or trapped. This feeling has led me through cycles of frustration, depression and anger. When I find myself stuck in my head, it's as if I am running around in circles, falling in similar patterns. While the pieces may initially appear peaceful, natural, and flowing, each artwork includes at least one shape trying to break free from its confinement but not succeeding. This contrast highlights the struggle between the desire for freedom and the reality of both real and perceived limitations. Technically, the work is created by selecting Fibonacci sequenced or random points within a confined space after which the Delaunay triangulation algorithm is used to separate them, from that point we apply a lot of different parameters to each separated area to create the final work.

We Vielen Met De Sterren
An audiovisual work that in a lot of ways is a continuation of techniques used in my previous art collection (Dis)connected, but centered around an entire new topic. Writing has always been an integral part of my life, We Vielen met De Sterren is a combination of my two main forms of artistic expression (writing and generative art). The work is inspired and crafter around a poem I wrote roughly six years ago.

(Dis)connected
An audiovisual work that explores the paradoxical nature of our over-connected world. (Dis)connected invites you to take your time. The visual artwork has soft swaying analog cables on a breeze, with a play on light in the background, as if days are going by. Cables, for decades now have been used to connect appliances, transmitting either electricity or data. The cables in (Dis)connected are clearly connected to something and leading somewhere, but we do not know to what or where.
View LiveAlcohol
In a past life, there was a (short) period I was heavily struggling with alcohol. I used it as an escape from reality. In particular, I still remember a moment where I was stupid drunk at 3 AM, ringing the door bell of my best friend crying after hitting a low point in life.
View LiveOde to black and white
An honorary series as a thank you to collectors of Ode to Color that have collected three or more pieces.
View LiveCircles In A Square World
A play on the saying "being square", usually referring to someone who is more conventional and boring. In the society I grew up in, being square is what people are being pushed towards. A traditional 9 - 5 in a well paying office job the goal. But I believe that in a world where the majority is square, living the circle life is way more fulfilling.
View LiveOde to color
An experiment with color palettes found in some of the most impactful visual artworks in the world, whilst simultaneously experimenting with the possibilities of creating a signature style (filling each shape with thousands and thousands of lines).
View LiveThis Fucking Darkness
Initially released under my Bitreverse pseudonym. Depression has always played a part in my life. I'm at a point in my life it's no longer all-encompassing, but it's still there, lurking in the shadows. This fucking darkness, is my representation of that feeling, that constant struggle. The whole range of emotions that are paired with it. Anxiety, anger, sadness, a sense of losing control.

It Was Always The Eyes
Conveying the message of silent understanding. When you meet a person who’s been through a lot, I think quite often you can see the sentiment of their past in their eyes. Most of us protect ourselves by wearing a "mask" (some do so more strongly than others), but the eyes of a person barely ever deceive. It Was Always The Eyes, strips away that mask and focuses fully on just the eyes. Even in a deceptively simple art piece, the result is quite powerful. Somehow allowing a lot of emotions to come crashing through.

It's (a)live
Created to celebrate the launch of 256ART and the unlimited possibilities generative art can give to artists. For me it represents personal growth in a lot of forms and a sense of calmness I've been lacking for the majority of my life. The series represents the slow (but steady) progress I have been making, both on 256ART and on myself.
