Metamorphoses 
 

Metamorphoses is inspired by men getting out of touch with nature. The Roman poet Ovidius, describes in his poems Metamorphoses beautifully how the harmony between men and nature got disturbed by gods pursuing earthly desires, just like men today. In classical times the longing for getting back to harmony was symbolised in hybrids of men and nature which can be seen in many fresco’s in the form of centaurs, fauns and so on.

By bringing these mythological figures to live, trough silver wire drawings on top of chiselled shapes, I hope to inspire you to get in harmony with nature again.
