About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

I am a Loner.

Like a female version of Saint Exupery’s ‘Le petit Prince’… I wander around this World… wherever curiosity may lead me.

Question: ‘What have You done with your Life ?’ I am fascinated by every person I meet & their stories… What do they really do with their allotted time on Mother Earth ?

I am specialised in Trusting Charlatans...

& constantly fluctuate between condemning mankind as the most arrogant and selfish Creature ever to have walked on this planet & my veneration for each and every Human Being. I tolerate man’s weakness… have a deep Fascination & Admiration for the creative, head-strong or even pathetic Struggle for Survival that symbolises Man…

I Love what I Hate….

Sometimes forgetting the difference… sometimes finding it difficult to distinguish between the 2.

I my Life everybody is welcome: artists, freaks, musicians, beggars and millionaires, health-freaks and junkies… cooks, full-time ‘Smart asses’, blunderers… American Dreams or people that just… fumble or stumble their way through life.

My baggage on this survival trip through life contains Love, Curiosity…
& the inexplicable urge to create something valid out of it: a book, music, a film, a videoclip, but it could also be a chocolate mousse… a drawing or a special gift for a beloved.

I Love music in all it’s genres, the feeling on sea-water on my skin, chocolate, champagne, driving and listening to music… dancing with my feet in the sea, getting lost in museums, preferably contemporary art.

TIME is my Lord and Master

Time will always judge true Loves, Friendships and the importance of good Art… or crap.

Express Your individuality, by the way you live… the way you look… through art, through music…

I find this a valid endeavour

My Interests

Music & Images...I make projects, mostly books... always with a link to music, so they are released with a compilation CD. Musicwise, my Heart goes out to the Belgians. Every autumn when I return from Ibiza they surprise me with new releases, new bands and videoclips. The Belgians keep on experimenting, mixing different styles, breaking rules... inventive... Mixing genres, mixing styles, going way beyond the "norm" and constantly evolving. When I am driving around Ibiza's roads I always listen to 'the Belgians'. Some of their music sounds incredible on the Island's roads. That's why I included a compilation CD with exclusively Belgian bands (Zita Swoon, Daan, Vive la Fête) in my photobook on Ibiza. This book, called 'Fé, Noches Blancas' is a tribute, a public declaration of Love to The White Island and to Music.Last year I brought out a book on the Phylosophy of Anger. Logically this wandering brought me to where I came from: Punkrock. 'Polar Fury' is channeled anger, a tribute to the force & purity of music. Includes a compilation CD: Funeral Dress, Capital Scum, The Kids, Sunpower, Agathocles, Ambrassband (very first official release), The Restarts (UK), Mas Mappers, The Agitators, The Dirty Scums. Distribution by Lowlands & Rock & Roll Radio & Popshop.beThe following project, a videoclip uniting my friends: the Punks and the Dragqueenfriends of Ibiza became quiete popular in cyber. An anti-discoteque song with all the club people performing... My dear friend Yörgen Sonck aka Jelizarose did a great job in this video, and is working very hard on our next project 'Island of Lost Souls': a movie, filmed in Ibiza but the soundtrack: exclusively: The Belgians. Which bands/Dj's have contributed is still kept secret, but yes... again in Kika's works: only Belgians ! Check out the Capital Scum videoclip: "freakshow" (capital scum)
