Artists
Statement
In 2000 I started mine own studio Thread Art and work in my own technic. Threads are the starting point for all of my artworks. This way of working requires relevant knowledge of this material. There are so many different types and thicknesses of thread that all lead their own lives when you start working with them. And if you want to work with it three-dimensionally, the thread must be able to be hardened, which brings its own unique rules and challenges for every particular material.

This artwork is construct from two prisms of carbon, when the prism is made of glass crystal, it breaks the light into a spectrum of all the colors of the rainbow. This fact represents for me the versatility of man, many colors impossible to a bundle and supports a bundle fanned out into many colors.
The black threads representing the male and the red threads representing the female. This is a good way to illustrate the under- and overrepresentation in several positions for men and woman.
The threads are woven into an six pairs connection which is unique en never done before. In every prism is one six pairs connection incorporated. The threads are unfolded to the edges of the prisms and the two prisms are combine to one big artwork.
