Maarten's work tells stories, arouses people's emotions, inspires their imaginations and makes them wonder. It is characterized by a highly evocative and poetic sensitivity. He continually explores new materials and reinterprets industrial production techniques and crafts, and has a unique sense of color. The emotional aspect of objects is as important as the functional one. He likes to use materials in unconventional ways and the final result never ceases to surprise us. His work is kept in private and public collections and has been exhibited in museums, galleries and fairs around the world.
