After my graduation from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam in 2000, specializing in photography, I have been working as an autonomous artist in Zutphen and Amsterdam.

I am Cuang Cou (Cuang-Tzu), one night I dreamed that I was a butterfly, fluttering happily and not realizing that it was me. But when I woke up, it dawned on me that I was still Cou. Although. Since then I have been haunted by the question of whether I am Cou who dreamed he was a butterfly, or a butterfly who dreamed he was Cou.
