Ode aan de emulsie
Ode aan de emulsie
a series of various works made from different screen print emulsions
multiple material and multiple sizes
Residency at Plaatsmaken Arnhem 2022-2023. Some of the results were shown at Rozet, and later that year in a duo exhibition with Derk Müller in Plaatsmaken, Extra Layer.
In screen printing, the photo-emulsion is used to create a template on the screen, this is the image you will print. This important facet of the screen print technique is isolated and put into the spotlight. It is shown as the work in stead of part of a printing technique. Photo-emulsion comes in different colours and every workshop has its own specially chosen brand and number.
In this series I gathered the different emulsions from the workshops I have printed at. I also got offered a few extra from colleguescreen printers. The different colours are the variety of the emulsions.

2022
Residency at de Werkplaats of Zwolse Theaters. Anne-Marie Meertens Rouw and I worked on a performance that researched the boundaries of theatre and fine-arts. People that crossed this alley were asked to enter this little game. They received a basket of some sort that contained a command:
Gather fruits
Gather rubbish
Gather sweets
Gather thoughts
While passersby crossed the alley they made great encounters with other trasure-hunters especially the children had much fun. All this was lifestreamed via security camera’s, the people could see each other and themselves through a big screen on the street.
