富平第一印象

    2008年6月   我在富乐陶艺国际陶艺馆的第一天

     My first days at FLICAM. June 2008.
First I want to thank the FLICAM staff for the warm welcome we received when we arrived at Fuping.
     I think it’s amazing to see how the whole pottery art village is growing into a beautiful and international important museum for ceramic art.
The artists that worked here before has done there very best to show a very interesting variety of art and craftmanship, and I hope we will be able to add something new and interesting to the museums as well. 
My first working days have been lovely, the working environment is very good and the studiostaff and translators do there utter best to help and support me with the creation and possible technical difficulties.
      Last but not least thanks for the hospitality and friendly staff at the hotel.

作品自述

      我创作的是具有纪念意义的三维陶瓷作品，油画，以及杂志和书本上的插图。我痴迷于各种栩栩如生地反映历史文化的史前器物，从墨西哥的鬼节传统到老式的杂志插图，以及19世纪的天主教葬礼上的纪念卡。我将这些爱好与对荷兰和全世界绘画的酷爱，以及古代和当代陶瓷传统制造技艺结合，创作了这些作品。我酷爱对比手法的运用，甜美的童话故事在我手里摇身一变就成了表演杂耍的怪诞形象，插图中的配角，还有地窖里的胆小鬼。现代的卡通形象和幻想中的英雄形象在这个神秘的国度不期而遇，这个世界就是‘Cirque de Pepijn’（帕品的杂技团）。
       I work on (monumental) three-dimensional ceramic objects, oil paintings, illustrations for magazines and books. I’m fascinated by a broad range of historic visual cultural artifacts ranging from Mexican “day of the Dead” traditions to antique magazine illustrations and 19th century Catholic funeral memorial cards. I combine these interests with my love of painting, both Dutch and globally, as well as ceramic traditions to produce works that at once reflect the antique and the contemporary. I have a great fascination for contrasts, cloyingly sweet fairy tale figures transform into what they are: sideshow freaks, the extras in the illusion, the creeps from the cellar. Contemporary cartoon icons and imaginary heroes encounter one another in the mysterious world of, what I call my own ‘Cirque de Pepin’ (Pepijn’s circus).
