I write in a language only you can understand — but only if you try.

I am a computational neurobiologist turned artist. I studied neuroscience because I wanted to understand how the brain processes information and creates meaning. The question that drove me was simple and impossible at once:

How does a collection of cells assemble a conscious experience that can understand its environment?

That question still drives my work. Though now, through art. Meaning-making shapes our everyday lives, but we rarely notice it when the world feels familiar, because the familiar already has meaning. We notice it most when we encounter something we cannot immediately read: a mathematical formula, a molecular structure, a dense scientific diagram. We sense that it means something, even when we do not yet understand it.

Why? Because it follows a pattern.

And the brain is, fundamentally, a pattern-detection and prediction machine.


My work lives in that space. I create symbolic compositions that resemble language: familiar enough to invite interpretation, foreign enough to resist easy resolution. The goal is not to deliver a fixed message, but to activate your meaning-making machinery and to invite questions like:


What does it say?

What does it mean?

Why does it matter?


I do not offer a final answer. Since in the act of looking for one, you may discover what meaning you are ready to see. And in that process, so I hope, the world becomes a more meaningful place to be.

  • Nation-Wide Public Exibition

    One of my favourite moments following the Artcrush x BIC exhibition came to me indirectly: the friend of a friend (someone I had never met and who didn’t know me either) saw my work at the station and reached out to my friend.

    She told him that the piece she just saw looked like a painting hanging in his bedroom. She didn’t know me, and she didn’t know both works were mine. She simply recognized the same hand behind them. Even though the pieces differed in colour, atmosphere and composition, something in the visual language of the work remained unmistakable and recognisable.

    That kind of recognition is deeply meaningful to me.

  • A limited edition BIC lighter

    As the winner of the BIC Art Battle 2025 in the Netherlands, I had the opportunity to see my work move beyond the wall and into everyday life. With 41% of the public vote — while second place received 18% — my design was selected to become an official limited-edition BIC lighter, bringing my visual language into a completely new format.


    Around 20,000 lighters are being distributed and sold across the Netherlands this year. This puts my work not only in front of people, but quite literally into their hands. There is something special about that kind of presence: art leaving the gallery context and entering daily life, pockets, conversations, and personal moments and spaces.

  • Community is everything

    What makes this project especially meaningful to me is that it was not a solitary achievement. The public vote campaign was carried by an incredible wave of support from my community.

    The post through which I mobilized people to vote reached over 18,000 impressions, and close to a thousand people showed up through their attention, encouragement, and action.


    This win is therefore not just a reflection of my work, but of the people behind me who believed in it strongly enough to help me carry it forward! I am deeply aware that I do not build any of this alone. My practice is supported by a growing network of people who see value in what I make. And so this project stands as a visible reminder of what can happen when art is backed by real community.

  • a little collective

    As resident artist at ‘a little collective’ I was given the opportunity to create murals in a live-art format. Drawing and painting murals during public events that where aimed at fostering community through fresh concepts and professional execution. A little collective was a unique mix of creatives that wanted to make a difference and push the envelope.

    During increasingly complex and ambitous events we built a reputation and made an impact unmatched to this day for events like ours. The last and largest event at the Griend Garage saw close to a thousand visitors over the course of the day!


    For these events I would start in the morning as we opened our doors and work continuously, sometimes for up to 9 hours in a state of flow, until the piece was complete. These events where among the first steps towards recieving a larger platform for my work and recieved wide-spread local recognition. 

  • ‎Growing and inspiring

    I was able to create some of my largest and most ambitous works yet and I am proud that they are present front and center in one of Maastrichts most important community space, the Griend Garage. Connecting with people through my art and inspiring others to embrace their unique styles is deeply fulfilling and I am grateful to say that these instances gave me the chance to do just that and leave a permanent mark in the city.
