Norah Boekholt (2005) completed her three-year preliminary training at the Instituto Buena Bista (IBB) this year. She has been accepted for the Fine Arts program at the Utrecht University of the Arts. Her ambition is to further develop her artistic ability into an artist. During her training at the IBB, Norah experimented a lot with different materials. She also did this with the work ‘A thread’. In this work, she wants to portray an illusion by making a material that appears soft look hard.
