![]() ![]() In 2010 I founded Figureworks, an Ottawa based not-for-profit organization for art of the human form in all media. “The Bark Archive” is on permanent display at the Canadian Embassy in Brussels. My work is in private collections in Belgium, The Netherlands, United Kingdom and Canada, as well as in the collection of Global Affairs Canada. My work has been shown in both solo- and (juried) group exhibits, including the New York Art Expo and the Canadian Gallery of Clay and Glass in Waterloo, Ontario. From 2016 -2019 I became an active member of the Ottawa Guild of Potters, as its secretary (till 2018) and designer of 2 major outdoor art installations: ‘Populace’ (2017), in celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday at The Canadian Museum of Nature, and ‘Compass’ (2018) at the Royal Canadian Geographical Society in Ottawa. I became a finalist of the RBC/CAO emerging artist award in the same year. ![]() ![]() Ceramic installations are my main focus, but since 2020 I also make smaller commercial work that I sell on etsy. Since 2012 I work as a full-time artist in my home studio. I settled in Canada in 2002 and enrolled in ‘Figure Drawing and Painting’ with Pamela Cockcroft-Lasserre (2007 – 2009) and ‘Ceramic Sculpture’ with Jim Thomson (2009 – 2011) at the Ottawa School of Art. I was born in Belgium (1961) and received a PhD in Biology from the University of Utrecht, The Netherlands (1993). ![]()
