Starting in 2026

Artistic research in Banne Buiksloot (Amsterdam North) on mail correspondence as form of engagement and the mail box as a space between public and private. 

2025

Besides selling my zine-work at DRUK 2025 - an indie art fair for books and prints - I facilitated the opening of the day with a workshop “DRUKbaar”: a bodily preparation for DRUK visitors. See more here…

2025

A BLOB-project that invites art workers to participate in a caring practice of gifting each other tiny spaces for producing art, sharing fleeting aesthetic moments or producing sensitivities. Read more here. 

2025

Selected imaginations from Butoh dance fieldwork, that enact bodies not as whole and closed, but as leaky, permeable and dissolving. Read more here... 

2024-2025

An outdoor notebook that encourages participants to explore their connection to nature and what connection and nature means to them. Read more here...

2024

In this lecture, we question the assumption that knowledge and intuition oppose each other. Through a number of different writing exercises, we come to know different ways of doing intuition. All of these build on a different imagination of what an intuitive body is. And all of them foster a different version of intuition. We explore what these different versions have to ofter for writing, researching and knowing. This lecture was part of an ECHO evening at POST Nijmegen around the "symbiosis series". 

2023

A notebook, drawings and workshop for the Unexpected Subject festival that renders the audience co-reseachers in an exploration of  participation, ways of seeing, and everyday aesthetics. Read more here...

2024

A workshop for the "Health, Care and the Body" research group (University of Amsterdam), in which we explored embodied writing. Based on the Laban-Bartenieff-Movement-System, we explored the page as a space to move through. Customized tea bags prompted participants with writing bags in the weeks following the workshop. A publication of the explored method follows in 2026 as part the "Writing Bodies" writing program of research centre What Art Knows. 

2020-now

A course for the Interdisciplinary Arts Department at the Maastricht Art Academy. We explore the student's body as research instrument in its specificity, deriving from the idea that all artistic work is body work. Studio workshops are alternated with documentation workshops students do in their own (artistic space) through specific paper objects developed for each theme. Read more here... 

2023

Workshop and plenary session for the Studium Generale Festival "The bodies that we become" at Wageningen University. Read more here... 

2022

An audio tour for the Bonnefanten Museum Maastricht, in which visitors are guided through the museum, learning different ways to feel their body. The tour explores ways in which they can use their body to experience the museum and some of its art works specifically. 

2020-2024

A honours course for the Institute of Interdisciplinary Studies, Amsterdam, in cooperation with Ellen Algera and Sonja Zuiderent-Jerak. Read more here... 

2020 

Drawing on the material-semiotic proposition that bodies and spaces do not only relate, but co-produce each other, this workshop offers practical tools to become sensitive to and articulate body-space entanglements. It introduces drawing as an ethnographic technique to study bodies in spaces.

2019

A Short Intensive Course for the Amsterdam Institute for Social Science Research and PhD's who are about to go on fieldwork. “Fields” (places, people, practices and so on) have a lot of things to offer to those researching them. For fieldworkers the body becomes an instrument, sensitivities become ways of knowing the field. However, being sensitive requires practice. How can we sensitize, calibrate, and care for our instrument so that it operates in the field in such way that is generative to our research and also to ourselves? When and how does our work require attentiveness? When and how should we be open to our environments? How to remain sensitive to one’s own body, its boundaries and needs, in surroundings that may be overwhelming? How do different notation techniques hone different sensitivities for events, practices, bodies? 

2018-2022

Organization of monthly seminars, invented and hosted by Annemarie Mol, during which we talk-walk about various issues concerning academic work, deriving from the idea that talking-while-walking enhances ways of thinking different from those attained sitting behind a desk or in a seminar.

2018

A SKILLSHARE workshop for the "Making Clinical Sense" Research Team and Marres Maastricht. In several short interventions and through various techniques, we approached feeling the body as a skill. We looked at multiple relations of feeling and thinking and how thinking can be a technique to foster feeling and vice versa. We explored how feeling our bodies can help us (as researchers, thinkers, academics) think, write and work. 

2017

Short Intensive Course for UvA. Academic education trains us to write sharp arguments, to read attentively, to relate to other’s words, to prepare engaging classes or original conference papers. What is strangely absent when being prepared for all these different tasks, is how to use our bodies. How to be more aware of one’s physicality, presence, our relation to our surroundings and other bodies? How to become more attentive to our bodies and individual specificities? How to perform bodies differently in various contexts? This Short Intensive Course made these questions present in the academic lives of social science PHD candidates and provided tools to perform aware and attentive academic bodies. 

2017 

Gathering for experts from different fields who touch people as part of their professional practice. Movement teachers, physical therapists, massage therapists, dancers and anyone who professionally touches people where invited and gathered to exchange thoughts, experiences and techniques.

2017 - now 

Annual 2-day workshop for the Master in Theatre (Toneel academie Maastricht) in which we learn about sensory knowledge by doing sensory knowledge. By reflecting on what and how we sense, we work on developing our ability to articulate and to experience subtleties in sensations. We explore how feeling individually can be used to foster feeling collectively, moving our discussion from bodily knowledge, to consider the role of sensitivity in artistic knowledge. 

2015-2016

A cheeky homage to mindfulness, with similar intensions, yet requiring and evoking a completely different attitude. Like mindfulness the goals are to establish a non-judgmental and open attitude, be able to escape from the bustle in the head, break patterns and reduce stress. Yet, while mindfulness accounts for patience, caution, modesty, stillness and peacefulness, out-of-your-mindfulness is playful, confronting, breaks through comfort zones, awakens creativities and imaginations, prevents seriousness and invites ridiculousness. Read more here... 

2015 

A warm-up for a two day Rijkswaterstaat conference, based solely on walking in circles and spirals with the intension to foster being together amongst 200 Rijkswaterstaat employees from different sectors. The emphasis was to give each participant the feeling of what it means to be part of a whole and to enact and be enacted by it. Moving as one and being aware of ones own particular place and space within this massive body consisting of 200 individual, yet not separated parts.
