- Venice this week! For the opening of the exhibition “Diagrams, a project by AMO/OMA” at the Fondazione Prada, Ca’Corner. It has been fantastic to play a small role in this project and it is even better to now see the whole show in reality, and amazing to speak to all the people involved
- This is a project I have been working on for several month and I am very excited that the exhibition “Diagrams. A Project by AMO/OMA” will open soon —> 10 May at Ca’ Corner, Fondazione Prada, Venice
- This week I have the honour of taking care of the Bluesky account @historicivertellen.bsky.social, where I well show you a bit more about my work (week). All in Dutch!
- The amazing #drawing course “Drawing Rome” will run again, taught by artist and architect David Dernie. It’s an amazing way to learn to see, observe and draw (and to explore #Rome) for beginners as well as experienced people.
