About me

I am Tjardo, a landscape designer and scenographer, as well as a researcher, hands-on constructor and a pursuer of childlike wonder.

I create performative art and performances that investigate and experience the intricate relationships and perceptions between humans and their environment. 

My aim is to produce unique, bizarre and/or surreal thought-provoking time-based experiences that stimulate a sense of wonder, offering a sublime experience accessible to everyone.

In my opinion, our own environments have a tremendous amount of wonder to offer, but this needs to be seen and appreciated. To achieve this, a collaboration with the environment is essential. It’s not about creating art in the environment, but rather with the environment, treating it as a co-performer and engaging in site-responsive scenography.
