About iebeltje van der spoel

“Piker je net, it komt doch oars” is a well- know Frisian proverb. It means as much as “Don’t worry, everything will change anyway”. The fact that everything changes in life is an established one. It fascinates me as well as it worries me. At times I can be a hopeless nostalgic and romantic person, in personal life but also in my work as an artist. In order to deal with this, I incorporate it into my work as an artist. Recurring themes in my work are therefore decay, transience , longing and loss. I hereby often draw from my own childhood as a starting point for my projects. At this moment I am graduating at the Master photography of the St. Joost Academy in Breda.
