In my paintings, installations it is not about copying the nature. It s like stepping into an endless snowy

plain that you take the Edegem before you take the first step and carefully leaves your footprint on it.

It s start from the white.

I make a translation of nature as I experienced and 

feel it and display that by means of colors and

Line. A color sometimes thick and sometimes thin,

applied with a knife or brush

A line sometimes fierce, sometimes soft

Contradiction is what I like, search in life, nature.

Those opposite’s that eventually go together

How impressive are the contrasts in nature

Especially experienced this in Iceland where I was

allowed to work for a month in Artak residence in

Grundarfjordur,west Iceland.

The country made a huge impression on me.

Molten rocks came out of earth.

The fire makes the island bigger.

Large ice caps with Vulcans underneath.

The white ice caps with many colors, geothermal 

springs.

Thermal springs in an ice surrounded landscape.

The white an important color for me.

The beginning, the many colors that arise from this,

which everything is possible.

The white that is also common in history.

The wonderful story of Naria Snow and the white

lily.

The realization, earth is impressive
