For years, I have been fascinated by salt, the purity, beauty of the crystals, but also the mystery of how they disappear and grow again. The pieces I have created since 2010 have been about the silence of the works, inviting you to contemplate and introspect. The project 'Lost....' is a deepening of my earlier work, in which the different aspects of the various series seem to come together. On the one hand, the paintings in which intense, sometimes landscape-like, sometimes baroque emotions in pure pigments and marble powders seem to emerge from the canvas. And on the other hand, the silent power that salt radiates. Throughout history, all kinds of powers have been attributed to salt, inspired by religions or geomantic traditions. By using salt in my consoles with tableware, I evoke the unconscious emotions that people have had throughout the ages when they see and use salt.
