Inspired by nature, philosophy, yoga, art and crafts, she chooses a form to explore social issues or question all kind of themes. She effortlessly mixes mediums in search of a unique language giving her work its extraordinary character and exposing ultimate depth.

Empowering

Van Klaverens artworks, whether they be handcrafted or digitalised or, most of the time, a combination of both, are always in search of a conversation with the viewer. Connecting surprising points of view and questioning the obvious. They radiate an undeniable longing to connect with the viewer and encourage them to empower the self.
