Sometime in the mid-90s I opened a door and found a corridor of endless ideas, moving freely between painting, theatre plays, scenarios, music, street poetry, and—since 2015—my main focus: experimental writing, such as hybrid books and pocket-sized chapbooks.

Paintings / visuals

With my paintings I search for clarity and a childlike vision within the chaos of the world: bold colour fields, sharp black lines, and visible brush textures that reduce uncertainty to essential forms. Lately, I’ve incorporated xerox-style paper textures and kindergarten-like perspectives, pushing the work toward something both raw and strangely innocent.

Hybrid novels

My hybrid novels offer a different kind of reading experience. Their impulse is exploration: each page becomes a blank canvas where content turns into form and form into content. Inspired by pioneers of experimental language arts such as Bert Schierbeek, whose work helped redefine what literature can be, I use collage, cut-up, and ready-mades—experimentation without the chaos.

Verbeelding in zakformaat

Verbeelding in zakformaat is a series in which I offer portable fragments—small books meant to travel with you, to be opened anywhere as intimate, fleeting encounters with language and image. They are not traditional poetry collections, but fragments drawn from a decade of hybrid literary work: an invitation to look closer and to question the boundaries of reading, writing, and seeing.
