Nieuwe Ruimte - Bespiegelingen

26-07_NR-Bringing awareness(700)Bringing awareness to body and mind, 2026

On July 5th the yearly exhibition of artists community Nieuwe Ruimte openend in Velp, NL. Each participating artist had been given a mirror, to use at least a minimal part of it in an artwork dealing with one's reflections on insecurity and vulnerability. Trigger of this concept had been the speedy rise of the use of AI in art and the fact - shortly explained - that it is just a tool, like paint, a camera, clay, fabric etc. something that can be used to help an artist visualising her/his/their concept in a unique personal work of art.
The result of this challenge is absolutely fascinating: some 50 artists have entered a very diverse collection of artwork in kinds of concepts and mediums, having made themselves more vulnerable then ever. Each artwork has a story behind it.
The opening was very well attended on a hot and sunny afternoon, with happy music, poetry, some speeches, nice drinks and bites to eat.
The exhibition can be visited on Saturday and Sunday afternoons from 12.00 to 17.00 hrs, Hogeweg 1, Velp, GLD, NL until August 9th.

TexpoART 2026

Wonderful to have my work selected into the 7th International Triennial of Textile Art TexpoART, RO. The theme this year was Order and Chaos, one or both concepts to be investigated by artists in any traditional or unconventional textile technique and material, applied to the inner universe, to nature or to social life.
