Stichting tot Steun Award

The scholarships were awarded to:

Alice Vink (Graphic Design, 2023): "Alice has created an exceptional and balanced combination of wonder, engagement and form. Alice's research has transformed itself into an autonomous work of art that arouses amazement in the viewer and at the same time provides insight into a hitherto virtually hidden world."

Nienke Roth (Photography, 2023): "The committee appreciated her way of presenting as a whole. Nienke tried to make a connection between past, present and future through the subject 'Waterwolf'. She tried to make the viewer see the concept of 'Waterwolf' in a different way with the help of 'language'."

Isa Roelink (Fine Arts, 2023): "The committee was impressed by Isa's color palette and her humour. She literally interweaves myths, dreams and reality in her own unique way."

Myra-Ida van der Veen (Artscience Interfaculty, 2023): "The committee is impressed by the way in which different forms of expression are combined and arrive at a completely unique form and sound for its project."

Lakisha Apostel (Fine Arts, 2023): "The act was very convincing, impressive and must have demanded a lot of their stamina. Lakisha Apostel's group made an impressive and transformed connection between current events and the history of the people of Curaçao."

Jacob Wallet (Artscience Interfaculty, 2023): "The committee was impressed by the combination of art and science. The committee has also recognized that over time the work has changed. Bringing together and integrating art and science is what the academy advocates, but it is also quite a challenge in such a process to arrive at a convincing form that actually communicates."
