Janneke Hoek
I'm a young storyteller who loves to work with her hands. My work varies in materials and techniques, such as wood or metal installations, linocuts, screen prints, illustrations and are often a mixture of these together. Nowadays I’m also focussing more on writing stories, poems and making my debut as a musician.
My work is meant to connect people: the people with the story, with themselves, with each other and with the landscape that surrounds them. With that connection I hope to inspire people to form a different perspective on the world. Nowadays I am also part of Het Kanaal, an interdisciplinary music company that revolves around the connection between man and nature. We focus on the Northern Netherlands, where we write and play Dutch-language music and performances and think of community projects. My role in this ranges from visual artist and set maker to saxophonist in the band.
