Hello world (?)
when I was (very) young my mother gave me a white bathroom tile and permanent colors to paint on. when Ii finished she said it was beautiful and that she will fix it in the bathroom (as a tile). I was very proud, can you imagine? first exhibition! I loved the idea of exposing my painting to people in a very relaxed and "bodily" situation. maybe that was the beginning, maybe it's all about the wish to expose, show and communicate, receive feedbacks (with an emphasis on positive ones). anyway, in a mental way I haven't come a long way since, and unfortunately even lost my painting skills, but technically wise few more exhibiting and feedback-extortion possibilities opened before me.
as a reflective work, I would also like to send you to two of these spaces:

a very short trip indeed.
even though I must admit, if my mother would have really hung that tile, who knows where I could have sent you today.
