After stepping out of my childhood paracosm, my focus shifted to social realities that directly shape me as an artist. My work addresses themes such as culture, racism, gender inequality, consent, motherhood and art, violence, police brutality, the justice system, and masculine vulnerability.
Rooted in the intersection of imagination and lived experience, my practice uses satire as a tool to open conversations around difficult and often avoided subjects. Through humor and irony, I aim to create space for reflection, confrontation, and dialogue.
Back to you hood
I returned to Curaçao, the island where I was born. It felt great to walk the streets again: the smells, colors, and sounds brought me closer to myself. It was a beautiful opportunity for me to be back on the island for this project. I wanted to go back to school and work with Radulphus College and St. Paulus School, where I also studied. This project revolved around these two questions: What are the things that you don't like about Curaçao? What are the changes that you wish for Curaçao?
