a or b, ink on paper, 2010
When I drew the first drawing of the ink drawing series, "The Gentleman With A Briefcase", I faced a dilemma. I could not decide whether the depicted man was a doctor or a professor. I often don't know myself whether I am a or b. Sometimes I am more one and at other times more the other. I used this incertitude as my point of departure and a whole bunch of such undecided and equivocal drawings, looking for their counterparts, came into being.
a + b, ink on paper, 2010
If a thing can be two things, then two can become one again. In my opinion, it's not all that great to be alone. So in the complex a + b I also drew individuals together with other people, in pairs, threesomes, foursomes and also a dog and a cat.
