I myself think that as human beings we can sometimes and even use some distraction from the heavier and more difficult subjects, that is something I strive to depict in my works. I believe if you are alone, but continue to delve into the misery that surrounds you, then engulf the nicer emotions that you may experience, which will lead you into a kind of downward spiral of negativity.

 

My current project “De Gniffel” is a series of works consisting of a number of paintings and prints that try to create a “chuckle” in humans through humor and imagination. This makes the series interesting for anyone who has an open view of artistry and who also needs lighting for heavier subjects. In order to achieve this goal as well as possible, it is of great importance to me to better understand the background information regarding humor and humor in art.

 

I have done this by researching different themes that give me a better basis with regard to this theme. I have assessed this on the basis of three topics: different types of humor, the effect of humor on the human mind and body and humor in art. My dissertation was used to delve into what I could do, so that I can design more effectively with this new knowledge.
