The images that strike Henri de Haas remain stored until they result in a work, often a watercolour; watercolour suits him best. Versatile as he is, he makes graphics, paintings, ceramics, films, music and theatre productions (including the Dogtroep). Watercolour painting is a passion, his technique unconventional: figures and objects do not flow into each other. The forms are limited by the blank white of the paper (the counter-form), which gives them a sense of space. The lucid but overcrowded images (sometimes described as dream images) are based on impressions that sometimes go back to WWII.
