The sculpture “Lapis Beatitudim” – the stone of happiness, allows to see a stone that has never been found by an alchemist. This on a ladder consisting of 7 tracks that are just too far apart, painted in an extremely black paint, this looks 2 dimensional. The stone does not seem out of reach, but difficult to reach

The mural refers to ancient maps (alchemy) of the universe, but we see 7 chemical symbols representing various narcotics that are already widely used in the party scene. In the dotted lines we see under nitrous oxide cartridges, all this revolving around a lead atom (referring to the quest of the alchemists, converting lead to gold). Together they form a map of a universe in which the escape from reality plays the main role.

The installation depicts the mental battle that is fought during a depression, having to prove it, to stand up to the outside world. The nail bed; in the spectrum of colors, makes a reflection (happy and dynamic) how one presents oneself to the outside world. Keeping up appearances and pretending to be cheerful with the painful realization; that falling leads to fatal destruction. The work was developed during the 1-month residency in the Vincent Van Gogh house in Zundert, where the life and work of “Van Gogh” served as the starting point.
