I’m a dreamer, a researcher, a hands-on maker; a cyclical designer.
Growing up in a rather linear culture my body reminded me that I’m a cyclical being. My menstrual cycle as well as the cycle of (in-)activity empower me to be an explorer of cyclical living. I experience creativity as a tool to reconnect with our inner rhythm, the rhythm of the planet.
"Drawing and creating became my language to express the world I'm dreaming of." As an illustrator I make visuals on request for your website or event as well as dream drawings. Dream drawings are a collaboration between your story and my imagination, they can become the motivation to follow your dream.
As an artist I’m offering workshops about how the menstrual cycle can be a guide in the creative and work process. Together we speculate about a future of cyclical living. Not only interesting for women.
As a Fertility Awareness Coach I’m offering a course in natural birth control (Sensiplan Method).
“We are the quiet revolution, weaving a web of connection and solidarity to life around the world, reclaiming what it is to thrive as a woman in today’s world.” ~ Ruby May
