This sculpture shows a very nice colorpallette. It is earthenware, fired at 1100 C.
This sculpture has a sister: 'It takes two to tango' II. The difference between the two is the size of the cirkels which give them a different way to move.
The movements are like an intens dance. When you move the sculpture, the sculpture is moving you.
The work is very strong despite the fragile looks; because of the firm shape of a circle: literally and figuratively as well.
The sizes are flexible. Laying flat the size is: 33*22*9 Standing: 28x20x20
Ceramics in motion
‘Motion is a key part of the expressiveness of my sculptures. Moving the sculptures leads to an ongoing change in shape, space, sound and feeling. Listen, see, feel and experience what happens when the sculptures dance and enjoy the moment’.

Interactive ceramic sculptures; Ceramics to see, hear, touch and feel

As a curious and sensitive child/teenager I followed many art and dance classes.
After one year at the fashion academy, I switched to visual arts, where the love to explore different materials was encouraged. After my graduation, I started with wheel throwing; that was the beginning of a deep understanding and eagerness to ‘talk’ with clay.
My sculptures are connections between my varied passions: textile, clay, dance, fashion and sculpture.
I love to explore space and play with rhythm, shape/form, movement, energy and sound. My work is telling you a story. Listen, see, feel and experience what happens when the sculptures move and enjoy the moment.
