PLACEHOLDER

Placeholder is an attempt at holding it together in the face of absence; of a mother, of a memory, of something tangible. Images oscillate between dreams and recollection, distorted and transformed over time.


SONG OF HOMECOMING

I became captivated by a small house on a French island, a mystical place hidden between the waves. In Song Of Homecoming, I talk to the house and its inhabitant in an attempt to find kinship and connection.


PITTER PATTER

Pitter Patter was created in collaboration with musician and cymbalsmith Julian Vleminckx. I visited his studio in april 2023 and tried to capture this tactile practice in composition of organic structures.

WHERE I LAY MY HEAD TO REST

Where I Lay My Head To Rest is a reverie, a confession. A personal account of what it feels like to be a woman in this day and age. An exploration of the interior, both psychologically and materially. A disjointed trip through (sub)urban female alienation.


EN VAGUES

En Vagues is an associative and volatile memoir of a mystery landscape. A landscape as an evocation of the soul, rugged and torn. A forlorn island smothered by the sea, which draws us towards her turbulent innards. En Vagues is a sensory trip, a dreamlike ebb and flow, lost in time.



HANDWERK

Developed and edited by hand during BREEDBEELD's 16mm workshop in Brussels in August 2021, Handwerk is a play of light and everyday gestures.
