Summary

This set of prints was inspired by a footnote in a research paper1. In a systematic review of qualitative studies,  there’s a table about how people around the world respond to trauma. The 64th most frequently mentioned response was “issues of the heart”. The footnote reads like a poem: “heartache/weak heart/spoiled heart/dead heart/sick heart/tired heart/wounded heart/broken heart/heart in trouble/unclear heart/disturbed heart/falling heart/hot heart”.

He is the godfather of trauma and traumatic stress research in the Netherlands, past president of the Dutch trauma society (NtVP) and the European one (ESTSS). He has a wide international network. In addition, he is a wonderful person, a dear friend, and a great artist. This is a tribute to all his wisdom.
