Visual artist, illustrator and author 

Artist statement

In my visual art, I strive to embed a deeper meaning where a narrative lies concealed. Utilizing symbolic color schemes, transformative objects, or various techniques, I weave the underlying tale into my creations. The ambiance and aesthetic are often forthright, emanating directly from the soul. The themes I select are profoundly influenced by my distinctive and intricate upbringing within the Dutch foster care system. Through my pieces on identity, I aim to convey that genuine diversity manifests in far more hues than a rainbow can encompass.
