Artistic Installations

Out in the open - 24/7 display

For the exhibition Out in the Open, in collaboration with Pride Art Route 2025, we created a visual installation together with artist and performer Guido Hoek. A video of his song “Since you asked” was played on loop, while meaningful and symbolic lyrics from the songs performed during the vernissage were handwritten on reused canvases. As night fell, vibrant, color-shifting lights brought the installation to life, creating an immersive and ever-evolving atmosphere.

Masks & Mirrors - 24/7 Display

For the Treehouse display, I created an installation centered around the figure of the Gnaga, a character from Venetian Carnival folklore, reimagined as a queer symbol of disguise and transformation. The central piece was a painted portrait of the Gnaga, surrounded by hand-crafted masks displayed on sculpted heads. Each mask was made using ingredients from the dishes served during the vernissage, merging visual and culinary storytelling. Visitors could scan QR codes to discover the recipes and explore the layered meanings behind the Gnaga’s presence.

The voice of Nature - Food Installation

Presented during the opening of Art Park II: Voice of Nature at Treehouse NDSM, The Breath of Nature was my first food installation—a multisensory tribute to the Earth’s vitality. A living composition of fruits, grains, and natural materials stood at its core, surrounded by a gentle mist evoking nature’s invisible breath. Sculptural wooden elements echoed the strength and resilience of plant life. Rooted in a zero-waste philosophy, all edible components were later used in the kitchen, transforming the installation into a full-circle celebration of sustainability and interconnection.
