Floor Leemans has one foot in the digital world as a graphic designer/teacher and one foot in the visual arts with her autonomous work. Fascinations are: patterns in the city, traces of life and use.
It is a feeling of vulnerability of the environment and absence of beauty. And the idea of infinity of things. That something new emerges from far-reaching matter. Nowadays she mainly works on paper with (colour) pencil, ballpoint pen and tape.
Floor: "When I'm drawing, one line lures the other. It is an ongoing process of development. Gumming can be done, but every line is drawn in the moment. Then step back and look. Sometimes I have made a whole series of drawings, but I don't know what they mean as a loner. At such a moment connections can arise between the drawings and suddenly I see connections and draw them together: a composite drawing comes to life in this way".
For a few years now, poetry has been connecting the constant stream of changing thoughts while drawing. The literal can be the subject, as something that gets in the way. (Mis)communication, connection and detachment, remnants of something that remains or just starts all over again.
