RAAK - awards

The RAAK-award is the prize for the best applied research, issued by Regieorgaan SIA. Regieorgaan SIA aims to increase the visibility of research conducted by universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands.

​

From 2024 to 2028, I have been commissioned to design and create this physical award. With my own ongoing form of research within my ceramic practice, the collaboration aligns naturally with the vision of Regieorgaan SIA. Each year, I plan to be present during the award ceremony. Seeing people respond to my work remains one of the best experiences, especially when it's about a sculpture that plays such an important role in the day.
