Painted Poetry & Painterly Poetics 
 
I will be working under the header of my current and ongoing project: “Painted Poetry & Painterly Poetics; an ekphrastic notion”. Many well known writers from the USA and Europe have participated in this transnational project of artistic and ekphrastic exchange. Basically the idea is a poem for a painting and vice versa. Now this came to include musical scores and video’s as well. But the majority of the exchanges are textual and painterly.  
 
I will show mostly works on paper, adventurous works in which it is all about the experiment and the object truly is a result of the path of painterly research. The narrative of the installation of my work should match the narrative of my work. So you would feel the steps I take in my work, how I let go of nearly every factor outside of the work of painting and drawing. In doing so, taking the viewer on a journey of artistic discovery. 
 
I will also bring a work from the Archeology of Personhood series which I did in 2014 and which are all about the layering of forms and colors in the picture plane. This layering in a way symbolises accumulated memories and feeling; from my experience whilst working my way through the canvas, its process of creation and in a way it is a reflection of personal development as well.  It is a mirroring of what we as persons experience in developing through time. 
 
I think the painterly without overtly quoting poetry can embody a poetic sense. This exactly through being all about painting its all about feeling and nuances, like it is with poetry. I wish to present a large work on paper on which I will paint a poem written by Norman Dubie for part three of my project: “Painted Poetry & Painterly Poetics; an ekphrastic notion” titled A Third Scroll of Malachite. Taking the painted word to another level! 
 
Also the idea of a continual process of installation is a thing I like, changing the configuration of works (on paper) on show, during the whole period of CAMPBASELrevisited 2017. In this way engaging reflection about the interaction between the works and their meaning. Triggering thinking directed towards purely artistic nuances.
