I’ve been invited to create an exhibition for our local Library (link) with the topic “Borders”. Each year in October we (the Dutch) celebrate “The month of history” and 2016 is all about the topic ‘Borders’.

People are calling for tougher borders, to keep out the danger. But putting up walls has never made things better… in the end we long to tear down the walls of fear that were supposed to protect us, we long for unity and forgiveness..

I feel really humbled and exited to have this opportunity, as it will be my first exhibition since I started drawing again (in September 2015). I will be creating around 10 drawings, of which 3 will be auctioned. The money raised will be going towards charity.

So for the next few weeks I will be posting about my preparations and progress

Stay tuned 🙂
