Radical softness }

What does that mean? I’m not entirely sure (yet), but I long for it.​

​

Gathering precious matters is a slowly and steadily growing archive. Stories, writings, photos, illustrations, sketches, and other creations. Carefully made and collected.

 

I call it a cabinet of curiosities, a soft universe, a magical forest, an intuitive archive. So feel welcome to wander and get a little lost. Follow the mossiest paths of my forest. Or explore the dustiest corners of my archive: whatever you prefer.

​

I love things that are old or even older, but also the crisp and new: freshly imagined, ready to be shared. I create and write, inspired by (urban) nature, recovery and healing, being human (how do you even do that?), and by what I unearth from memory, history, or simply my storage. And sometimes, from that infinite archive of everything: the internet.

​

Human mollusk
I searched — and found — something I can do, while living in slow motion as a human mollusk. Looking back, collecting, and writing. I’d love to take you along in that process and the soft universe it’s been growing into so far.​​
