Body & Soul
Lent Art Project 2026
During Lent 2026 my boyfriend, Stephan Ruigrok and I, explored John 13, with a special focus on the subject: the washing of the feet.
We both chose our own materials and techniques, and on which parts of the theme we would focus.
We published the progress of the project on our websites and on social media.
I explored the theme of the washing of the feet by Jesus, with video, photography, drawings, paintings and digital editings. On this page a selection of the artworks by Stephan and myself.
