Jikke van Loon
Fall 2008
Jikke van Loon wanted to make drawings "to mess up my obsessive urge for order and regularity". In this way she created beautiful drawings with pen and white ink on a black surface of dressed up people in a dark forest. These drawings were used as invitations for the patients, to encourage them to come for dinner disguised with masks and costumes. A number of young people came to pose, this led to a confrontation that resulted in more than life size sketches of them in martial poses. Later she showed this martial vulnerability of her models in the performance 'a Fight'.
