Naturally, the outcome of my investigation was also translated into a new painting on a relatively large scale for me: 120 cm by 98 cm.
It was an intense yet profoundly enriching year, and I had the pleasure of attending the opening of the visually stunning Microkosmos exhibition in early September.
One month ago, the ‘Microkosmos’ exhibition opened at the Drents Museum.
A year prior director Harry Tupan and curator Annemiek Rens invited me to contribute. With intern Nina van de Vijver, I immersed myself in a new chapter of Terra Ultima and into a new field: film.

One year ago, I unearthed a strange object. This find sparked an investigation to it’s origin, captured in a short film and culminating in a new painting.
Both film and painting are on show at the ‘Microcosm’ exhibition in the Drents Museum from this weekend on until 1 March 2026.

There’s something on the horizon…

Chinese translation of the book about the discovery of Terra Ultima. The publisher has made great effort to make the book accessible to the Chinese readers. A letter to the reader has been added.

“The only true voyage of discovery, (…) would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes, to behold the universe through the eyes of another, of a hundred others, to behold the hundred universes that each of them beholds, that each of them is.”
