Toekomsrus (Future Place of Rest)

Toekomsrus (Future Place of Rest) forms part of an ongoing series titled In Our Glory, an exploration of the power of image-making, identity and memory within the multigenerational family archive. This new body of paintings reflects on the unreliable nature of archives and the way they are shaped by those who control and curate them. The paintings do not merely reconstruct memories; they play on the very act of remembering and the ways in which identity is both formed and fractured through time.
