Come closer,

open your Zenses

and meet me in

The Art of Aliveness

A way of seeing and sensing life

in all its wonder, depth, play and delight.

to solve or explain.

Life is the mystery to live.

An artistic world

to wonder and wander.

Where,

the visible and the unseen,

the earthly and the mystical

belong to one living reality.

the living presence of mystery

and the beauty of impermanence.

Annette Maria Bakx

.

Visual Artist & Poet

.

My work arises

through my Zenses.

.

I play with perception,

mystify in the ordinary,

aMuse with beauty

and awaken wonder. 

.

I give form

.

to what can be felt, held, lived

before it is understood.

.

to what fades,

yet can never be lost.

.

to what is alive

beneath the surface,

beyond appearance.

.

.

.

Enjoy your Aliveness.

– Annette
