Een eerlijk gesprek over kunst, verbinding en de kracht van liefde: Deel 2 van 3

————————

💛 When art becomes a HEART BEAT for connection: interview part 2 of 3.

An honest conversation with my cousin Diana Matroos about HEART BEAT, my interactive art light installation created through Ruwe Bolster Artlights & Furniture in support of

Heart Beat responds to music through light transforming sound into a living, visual rhythm. At its heart, the project is about something deeply human: the power of love, hope, and connection.

I’m grateful to Diana for taking the time to interview me and explore the story, intention, and emotion behind the work. It’s very special when a personal connection becomes a creative one too.

Thank you, Diana, for helping bring the heartbeat of this project to life. 💚

Connection

10/06/2026

Most people see a lamp.
I saw the history of a building.

When I designed an apartment on Zeeburgerdijk in Amsterdam East, I kept thinking about what it used to be.
A fashion school.
That detail stayed with me.

Around that same time, I visited the in Tilburg and saw these colourful thread cones. Something so joyful about them. Simple, almost playful.
That image never really left.

So I combined leftover thread cones - found on - with fabric cables, a solid oak board, and a cone-shaped LED bulb with a retro feel. Because the building is from 1914.

Piece by piece, it became more than a light.
A colourful reminder of a building’s story.

The second STITCH IT was made from leftover fabric from , a fabric design and production company — sourced the same way.

Different material, same feeling.
Giving overlooked materials a new place. A second life.

Now they hang as centrepieces that bring warmth, colour and a bit of humour.

I love objects that make people smile. That make someone stop and ask:
“What is that?”
Because then the story begins.
