“It starts with an impulse, a vague idea. Suddenly,
you give in to what your hands want to create.
That’s how a ball, a circle, a loop or a chain come
into being – shapes, that you try to give coherence.
A figure is created. I don’t know where it comes
from. Probably from nothing.”
Jan Verschoor:
“Trust: two shapes in one shape caught in marble. A panta rhei.”
