PWS

Cardboard chair

made from September 2016 till Februari 2017

At the end of Dutch secondairy school, every student has to make a PWS, it's a project based on the courses you followed. I made this project with the course art class.
The base idea was to make furniture with recycled materials, so I did a lot of study for it, looking for other artists that already made pieces of furniture with recycled materials. I found a lot of different uses and am very inspired to recycle more. However I decided to focus on cardboard. That was the moment I realized that cardboard is an great material for many things. Despite the fact that it can't stand fluids, it is very usefull and powerful. With this knowledge I started experimenting, and I quickly figured that cardboard can hold big weights. The chair on this picture held someone of 100 kilos.
I also made a closet for dvds, I had a dvd collection and wanted to put them somewhere nice, so I decided to make my own closet.

TARDIS VAN GOGH

Tardis Van Gogh

made in October 2015

The assignment was to make a painting with the features of an art movement or a particular artist, I chose Vincent van Gogh. This painting is a mashup of one of the last paintings of Van Gogh and a scene from Doctor Who. In my eyes they work quite well together.
