A contemporary aesthetic

With the work Hope (staff #104, 286cm) I want to express my desire for a biodiverse environment. My desire for a future full of poetry.  No more monoculture anywhere not even in this courtyard of Galway University’s administration building. A contemporary aesthetic, based on the urgent need for biodiversity, should be the new norm. For some people it may take a while to get used to this ‘new fashion’ before it can be experienced as beauty.

Endless Diversity

The 28 parts make a dance while the paint is hardening.
Staff # 101 stands sometimes (built up)
in the front yard of Institute Johanna de Lestonnac. Dobbelmannweg 5 Nijmegen.

The sculpture Endless Diversity (staff #101)  calls for breaking the pattern of monoculture.

(Over forty percent of the surface area in the Netherlands is used for monoculture. Twenty percent of the Netherlands is full of the monocultures for the purpose of cattle feed; grass and corn.)
