frieda mellema
like a poet plays with words, she plays with imagery.
combined found materials, flowers, old objects and textiles,
telling a new story together.
a fairy tale, that offers you a new perspective on useless trash 
or that old coffee pot. 
all her images are taken with daylight. with an almost philosophical take 
she guides you along all the imaginations inside her head 
and create new life for things often forgotten. 
her signature is clearly present in everything she makes : soft colours, a lot of light,
dreamy settings, minimalism and great texture, structure and textiles.
