[WONDERLUST]

With our new project [WONDERLUST] for @wiedewold, we aim to offer visitors a fresh perspective on the value of nature. The furniture is crafted from pine wood sourced from Norway spruce trees. In Echtenerzand, a local natural reserve, many trees of this species were felled last winter due to infestation by the bark beetle. This beetle damages the trees by tunneling through the wood, disrupting the tree’s sap flow and causing it to weaken and die. The patterns on the furniture are inspired by the characteristic shapes created by the bark beetle in the wood.

On the table, we showcase different forest finds, things that surprised us with their natural beauty. Do you ever take the time to wonder about these small details while wandering through the forest? In this exhibition, you can observe all these tiny beauties.

By providing a new perspective on the local surroundings, we hope to stimulate a dialogue about the future of the countryside and the role of nature within it.

[WONDERLUST]

With our new project [WONDERLUST] for @wiedewold we aim to offer visitors a fresh perspective on the value of nature. This woolen cabinet, for example, contains an altar for the local scents. The scent diffuser is made of local sand, ranging from beautiful colors of iron red to soft grey. The scents come from local spruce and juniper. The holder for the diffuser is made from turf.

The wool comes from a herd of Schoonebeeker heath sheep kept by shepherd Neils Tiktak in Orvelte. This is a rare breed with significant cultural value, and Neils works diligently to preserve it. The sheep are often multicolored, with a distinctive curved nose, long-haired coat, tall legs, and long tail. The wool is washed, carded, and then incorporated into the furniture to honor the beauty of the wool.

By providing a new perspective on the local surroundings, we hope to stimulate a dialogue about the future of the countryside and the role of nature within it.

[ WONDERLUST ]

The countryside embodies tranquility, space and conviviality. Yet it recently became a subject of debate and division. With our project [ WONDERLUST ] for @wiedewold we are aiming to evoke a sense of wonder by transforming local materials into an interactive exhibition. What do you feel? What do you see? What do you smell? Can this sense of wonder lead to a renewed perspective of the local environment and thus lead to a greater connection between nature, humans and each other? Opening on the 28th of April in De Wolden.

The coming weeks I will be on Curaçao to work with @farmtocrafts. I am so excited to discover the local materials, get to know the people and history of the island and work together to create a new product. Next to this, I will also give a lecture about my work on the 23rd of January @cathedral_of_thorns. Entrance is free, but reservation is necessary. For more info see @farmtocrafts

Another highlight was co-founding @zee.fier in 2020. After years of researching seaweed as a natural textile dye and being captivated by the diverse range of beautiful colors and possibilities it offered, I successfully found the right partners to initiate the scaling process. The dream of transforming the textile industry into a cleaner and more sustainable entity is steadily materializing with each passing day thanks to the wonderful team of Zeefier.

This fall we celebrate our 10th anniversary! A nice moment to look back at some highlights of the past years. The coming time I will share 10 precious memories.
