Dear Insider,

I am delighted to let you know that I have started my master degree: Life Art and Performance Studies at the Theatre Academy of the University of the Arts, Helsinki. It is one of very few free Masters programs in the world that focuses on the intersection of Performance Studies and the practice of Live Art/Performance Art. I am looking forward to deepen my artistic practice trough this master.

All of this did mean that I had to leave the Netherlands and move to Finland. I also had to abandon my studio’s (the one in the forest and the one Amsterdam), including my lovely studio mates Charlie and Isa. But I am sure we will meet again.

The wind of change is blowing! Well, sometimes it feels more like a hurricane…
