wherever i am working i’m always looking for the smallest details that tell more than they seem to at first. small things that are often ignored or overlooked tend to play a huge part in my work. almost nobody sees these small details conciously, but everyone will recognize them once showed. i collect them on paper and this way give them the space they need to let them tell their story clearly. whether it is the characteristics of a festival, a durability program on the other side of the world, or a whole ecosytem in the middle of a city; i will submerge myself in my new surroundings and look further than it’s surface to put them on paper. this way telling the bigger story by painting the smaller picture. check out my website: https://jooststokhof.nl/ selected clients van gogh museum, das mag, centraal museum, lowlands festival, hp/de tijd, nike, o’neill, into the great wide open festival, dox records, excelsior recordings, tivolivredenburg, soundway records, nrc.next, hendrick’s g
