De reis naar Batik: July 2014
http://dereisnaarbatik.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
De reis naar Batik. July 13, 2014. A good place for (temporary) carpets. Laurent Mareschal's work in the front, the dresses in the back by Dice Kayek. Tomorrow I'm going to London, again! And this time to make two public installations, temporary carpets. One on a bridge, another in a park.*. Because I didn't have time to blog about my previous stay, I made so much photos to share with you, and I also didn't have time to blog about cool stuff I saw and did before, so this post will be a mixture of both.

De reis naar Batik. June 16, 2014. Sometimes you're missing so much, while doing too much. I'm still in my 'what do I want' phase, but the year is already in half and I'm just doing a lot of things, great things, but no time to think things.
