Limburg Biënnale 2# Marres

”Art is an unsolvable problem related to material, from, and image conceived by humans. I pit this dilemma against my belief or disbelief that I can tap into something of significance through my work. One of the works I selected for my room bears -ironically- the title Flawless, embroidered on an oval open-worked fragment of lace. Flawless is a word that I paraphrase as spotless or free of errors, unblemished and pure. The longing to create something impeccable remains intact despite the understanding that only the loss of control and infinity blunders can help the artist move forward. What is not claimed by reason, language or the will of the maker brings other qualities tot the surface: longing, doubt, tangibility, powerlessness, love. The words I chose all express the art of making meaningful mistakes”. Paul Drissen.

The work was also printed on a postcard for the Limburg Biënnale 2#.
