With my work, I want to contribute to the Dutch-Indonesian aspect in Dutch culture and what it means to have a different background. Background and family history influence one's habits and thinking.  My work is figurative and represents the inner strength and character of an interracial woman, using myself as a model.

My sculptures are composed and built up in layers. Gluing plate material together gives drawing and detail in the work and accentuates feminine curves. In sculpture, I look for an abstract approach, where the layering reflects the complexity of a person. The facial expression is not readable, which I leave to the viewer to fill in themselves.

In my recent work, I seek visual expression with drawings and sculptures to tell the family story of life left behind, the war period endured, leaving the country of origin and starting a new life in the Netherlands.
A story that was not much talked about in the family, but one that I felt from childhood. In the current time of division, the urgency has increased to share and visualise my experiences about it.
