About

I am a modern embroider dedicated to making authentic artwork. I create colorful designs using threads and needle, sometimes beads and lately experimenting with the combination of ceramics and embroidery… I like to reinvent embroidery by making an empowering statement. All my work is hand crafted in my home atelier in Schiedam, The Netherlands.

Formerly educated as a graphic designer, I made a radical switch in my career after a traumatic event in 2019. Embroidery started as a way to help me grieve and get through the day.

Since then, it helps me get through the tough process I have to cope with.

Gradually embroidery became a method of healing. Currently, I take pleasure in embroidering every day!

Color is crucial in my work, details are key and each stitch becomes an emotion. Working as a modern embroider turned out to be something I am passionate about.
