The work "FLINDERS" is part of the "Babel" project. The text accompanying the sculpture refers to the impossibility of capturing man's lively spirit with words. (See also website) The accompanying text is:
A butterfly
you do not catch
in a net of words.

About the artist: Hans Oosterom Rotterdam (1945) www.hansoosterom.com It is said that I am a researcher and whoever searches, can find. For a true seeker that is not important. What is found leads to the next question, using everything that has been found before as a motive. I mentored editors, trained inventors and advised entrepreneurs and was an entrepreneur myself. I was a psychotherapist and author of "Glad You Doubt." Now I explore the possibilities of digital creation, modern printing techniques and new materials. But not without also asking a deeper question: our rational thinking helps people move forward, but to where? Besides my interesting jobs, I have never been bored. Creative freedom began early on. From the age of 15, I played double bass in jazz formations. That brought me insight into timbre and improvisation. Later -in France- I worked with photo ceramics because the glazes give such beautiful intense colors. Glass slumping and fusing has long been another "hot" subject. In Arizona, I made some interesting bronzes. Now, retired, I live on one of the beautiful islands of Zeeland. Developing my own style of sculpture has become my passion, new interesting techniques with new results. My hearing made the double bass mostly decorative; now I develop new compositions in sculpture form. Creativity and passion just keep going!
