We all forget things sometimes. Where we left our keys, why we went upstairs in the first place… or where that banana went. But Alzheimer’s is unfortunately a very different story. In my personal life, I’ve seen up close what this disease can do to someone and their surroundings. As an artist, whose work focuses on capturing faces, emotions, and memories, that really affects me. That’s why I created this piece: "What sticks doesn’t always stay"—an original ballpoint drawing, inspired by Maurizio Cattelan’s famous banana with duct tape. A pen that keeps writing. Tape that keeps sticking. But memories that unfortunately don’t always stay. That’s why I’m auctioning this original work and donating 50% of the winning bid to Alzheimer Netherlands. So: Place your bid before you forget. STAY WITH IT A ballpoint against forgetting.
