NEITHER RHYTHM NOR REPETITION (2024 -2027) engages with the Driessen Collection, archived at the Textile Museum Tilburg, as part of a collection commission alongside Ratri Notosudirdjo and Sandim Mendes, initiated by Adelheid Smit and Rolando Vázquez.

The images shown here trace parts of that journey, from field research to the development of new work at the TextileLab, in collaboration with Technical Specialist Judith Peskens. This process will culminate in a textile and sonic installation for a group exhibition at the Textile Museum in 2027.
