Jeroen Erosie
I try to look for the parallels between, and the nuances of the graffiti-codes, the illustrated
image, commercial visual language and the traditions of art, since all of these fields belong
to my background and my present-day interests.
I try to use, confirm, deny or question these fields visually and/or conceptually in the quest
to define my personal visual language.
Next to that I have absolutely no clue what I'm doing, but try to get away with it anyway.
