    Veiling: Traan Van Herinnering (ten voordele van onderzoek naar alzheimer)
    August 28

    I am offering a work of art for an art auction, supporting scientific research into the diagnosis of Alzheimer's with tearfluid.

    Marlies Gijs from the Belgian Kempen region (Dessel) is the biochemist and researcher at Maastricht University researching Alzheimer's disease diagnostics via tear fluid. Marlies made the groundbreaking discovery that tear fluid can be used to detect Alzheimer's disease. Her ambition is to bring this method to the clinic, which requires €25,000. To reach this amount, we are looking for artworks for an auction to fund the scientific research.

    Open Ateliers 2016
    sept 2016

    Open Atliers gives artists the chance to show their art in their own studio and at the retrospective exhibition. You can visit the artist’s studio and talk about the meaning of the work and how they made it.

    Rituals
    april 2016

    Exhibition in the framework of Heritage day 2016

    Rituals ..... they stem from the time when animals could speak and appear all around the world. Everybody knows some and everyone cherishes a couple, personals or public ones. But what are rituals exactly? Why are they so powerful and meaningful? Our lives are filled with small and large rituals which we learnt from our parents and forefathers.

    The exhibition consists of two parts. One part about the memories of different traditions in Ekeren and for the other part we challenged local artists to "give us an impression about their local habits.

  • 2015

It’s exciting to show your artworks to others. Every canvas has something of myself in it, so each time, it’s like exposing a little bit of my soul. In this way, I try to reach out to others in a positive manner and awake something inside my viewers.
