Die Arbeiterin series
Der Arbeiter tanzt nicht, der Arbeiter arbeitet.
Kowalski | phrase from the song Der Arbeiter | 1983

I concentrate on women and the female as a core subject by dealing with universal, existential questions of what the female can mean. With the inspiration and information I gained from the history of the site at my 3 months residency Internationales Sommeratelier Aschersleben and my previous residencies in Germany working in old factories resulted in Die Arbeiterin series. My latest small paintings of the series where created at artist-in-residence at Van Gogh AiR in Zundert, in studio De Moeren. Following in Van Gogh's footsteps, I am particularly fascinated by his painted peasant life; the hunched peasant women performing diligent labour: digging, sowing, harvesting and collecting potatoes etc.

De vrouw laat haar noeste arbeid zien op het doek. Doordat zij de randen en de hoeken van het schilderij bewerkt met haar gereedschap lijkt ze de maker, de beeldend kunstenaar, aan te raken op die scheiding van het doek. Het is als een kijkje in een ontmoeting waar zowel de verbeelde vrouw als de verbeeldende vrouw aan het werk zijn.
