Echoes of Time explores the tension between creation and impermanence, inspired by the grandeur of the Dutch Masters and the ideals of the Baroque era—beauty, knowledge, and human achievement.
Rosewood Amsterdam is a celebration of Dutch excellence, a cultural landmark that seamlessly blends heritage with contemporary innovation. Honoring the stories of its past, the former Palace of Justice is reborn as a vibrant cultural hub that pays homage to the city’s dynamic contrasts. The iconic space, situated on UNESCO World Heritage-listed canals, is an invitation to discover the creative spirit of the city and its community.
The work reflects on how art, memory, and civilization are always in flux—shaped and eventually eroded by time, nature, and societal change. While the digital realm seems eternal—infinitely copyable and preservable, it too is fragile.
Inspired by the iconic Delft Blue this piece is an homage to the young women of 17th-century in the Netherlands. Those whose lives were quietly intertwined with the material culture of the era. In the world of Delftware, blue on white, cool tin-glazed surfaces that captured a new Dutch taste for simplicity—there lies an invitation to look deeper into what these women signified.

In my piece I draw on the visual language of Delftware and its soft cobalt outlines, its translation of East-Asian inspiration into a Dutch idiom of restraint and quiet elegance. I present these young women as anchors of that idiom: not as passive but as influential, breathing life into objects, interiors, rituals and impressions that defined their world.

Echo of Time wraps their legacy into the present. It honours how these women helped a cultural form to blossom, and how they supported craft, community, exchange, and the translation of global influences into intimate, local experience.
