conceptual artist, (sub) urban curator, tutor, maker

since 2000: art + heritage + society + art as public space
conceptual artist + independent (sub)urban artist-curator + empirical artistic field researcher + art-science-society + tutor + environmental storytelling + inventor of innovatory heritage = the shift from static/exclusive towards dynamic/inclusive heritage, the shift from material heritage to include also immaterial heritage.

since 2006: sea + time + landscape + climate
co-founder, artist-curator of artists collective Satellietgroep. Founded in The Hague, Netherlands in 2006, Satellietgroep explores the reciprocal relations of humanity and nature from an artistic perspective, with a focus on the sea, (coastal) landscape transitions, climate and the impact of humanity on the planet, with art-science-society projects, over 10 years of international exchange artist-in-residency programs with public expeditions in the Netherlands and abroad = the shift from professional climate awareness towards inclusive public climate awareness.

it’s a love story! Earth, ceramics, time & climate
art + paleontology + geology + archeology + hydrology + ecology + future climate = in search of the miraculous…the hybrid in-between-ness of the natural and artifactual.

Since 2020: conceptual porcelain | future paleo porcelain | public touching upon time & climate
maker, trying to capture timeless landscapes into a simple sensuous Cup with Soul | guided by the transience of time | with notions of geological and archeological time being present in the here, now and the future | re-using, re-cycling, up-cycling, re-inventing historic porcelain and Bone China recipes | North Sea Mammoth Fossils Porcelain | The Hague Dunes Iron Age Pottery Porcelain | hybrid fossils-artifacts | Cups with Soul | living botanical heritage | indigenous Sphagnum mosses | Sphagnarium | Ginkgo, a living fossil | a hommage to Ginkgo biloba | conceptual ceramics | 3-d technology | Biodigital Eggshell Porcelain | Future Paleo Porcelain | anticipating the ongoing process of climate change | a future trace fossil | a next index fossil | for unknown posterity to come…

BIO, NL
Jacqueline Heerema is conceptueel kunstenaar, (sub)urban curator en docent. Ze studeerde Monumentaal en vervolgens Omgeving aan de Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten Den Haag, gevolgd door Theoretische Museologie aan de Universiteit Leiden. Als empirisch artistiek veldonderzoeker zoekt ze veelzijdige perspectieven om ruimte te creëren voor wederkerigheid en meerstemmigheid in een snel veranderende kwetsbare wereld. 
Jacqueline is gefascineerd door percepties van tijd en constructies van waarde, die we vaak als vanzelfsprekend beschouwen. 
Ze beschouwt kunst als publieke ruimte en verbindt kunst en wetenschap met publiek. 
 
Kunst als publieke ruimte
in 2001 plaatst Jacqueline een schommel in een geopend raamkozijn om de publieke rol van kunst(instellingen) te bevragen. Een surrealistische en efemere publieke interventie in tentoonstellingsruimte TENT in de Witte de Withstraat in Rotterdam. Hoog boven de straat kon gedurende 1 middag publiek van binnen naar buiten schommelen, of andersom. 

Kunst en erfgoed: de verschuiving van materieel naar ook immaterieel erfgoed
Met een praktijk in kunst en erfgoed transformeerde ze een woonwijk tot ‘Museum Oostwijk’ (2002-2009), deconstrueerde institutionele museologie in ‘De Wonderkamer van Zoetermeer’ (2008-2009) en is uitvinder van Innovatory Heritage, waarbij het begrip van erfgoed verschuift van statisch/exclusief naar dynamisch/inclusief. Op uitnodiging van COMCOL deelde ze haar inzichten onder meer met de presentatie ‘Can art contribute to new concepts of heritage, museums, collections and society?’ tijdens het jaarlijkse museumcongres ICOMRio in Rio de Janeiro, Brazilië (2013). Over inclusie, en verschuiving van materieel naar ook immaterieel erfgoed.

Kunst, natuur en collectief: de verschuiving van professioneel naar ook publiek klimaatbewustzijn
Als onderdeel van haar artistieke praktijk is Jacqueline mede initiator en curator van Satellietgroep. Een internationaal kunstenaarscollectief dat sinds 2006 de veranderende relatie tussen mens en natuur vanuit artistiek perspectief onderzoekt, met een focus op de zee, (kust)landschapstransities, klimaat en de impact van de mens op de planeet. Ze ontwikkelde en cureerde ruim tien jaar artist-in-residency programma’s met publieke expedities in binnen- en buitenland (Scheveningen, Den Haag, Wadden, Afsluitdijk, Zandmotor, België, New York, Japan, UK, Malta, Kroatië, Litouwen, Rusland Georgië, Moldavië, Turkije, 2009-2019). Op uitnodiging sprak ze in het Europees Parlement in Brussel over ‘Arts & Climate Change’ (COP 21, 2015).
In 2018 cureerde ze het tentoonstellingsprogramma ‘Climate as Artifact – Klimaat als Mensenwerk’ in de Elektriciteitsfabriek in Den Haag. Gedurende vijf weken werd op locatie gewerkt en vonden workshops, seminars en publieke expedities plaats. Publiek kon bijdragen aan artistiek onderzoek en kreeg via de kunsten toegang tot andere kennisdomeinen. In 2021 publiceerde Technische Universiteit Delft haar essay ‘Pioneering Sand Motor – Sand Motor as source to rethink anthropogenic coastal modifications of cultural public space’. Ze introduceerde de Zandmotor als Klimaatleerschool, over het belang van de verschuiving van professioneel naar ook publiek klimaatbewustzijn.

Kunst en publiek aanraakbaar maken van tijd en klimaat: It’s a love story!
Naast projecten over zee, kust, wadden, polders, dijken, badplaatsen, een regenrivier en de Zandmotor ontwikkelt ze sinds 2019 ‘The becoming, The being & The meanwhile’, een kunstproject over zinnelijkheid, tastzin, kwetsbaarheid en klimaat rondom een geconstrueerd moerasje genaamd Land in wording in het Amstelpark Amsterdam. Ze begint in 2019 met een Sphagnarium om onvoorwaardelijk collectief zorg te leren dragen voor een collectie levende Nederlandse inheemse landschapsvormende veenmossen en liefde in het klimaat discours te brengen.
 
Op het raakvlak van kunst met paleontologie, geologie, archeologie, hydrologie en ecologie spelen circulaire percepties en maakbaarheid van tijd, materie, landschappen en klimaat een grote rol in het werk. De wijze waarop natuurlijke en door de mens veroorzaakte krachten elkaar in de tijd ontmoeten zijn daarbij een kern. Niet alleen een landschap wordt daarbij onderzocht, maar ook of en hoe de waarneming zélf vormgegeven kan worden. Kan ons voorstellingsvermogen verder uitgedaagd worden en is het mogelijk een meer affectief, zinnelijk wereldbeeld te creëren?

Het gieten van het dunste doorschijnende eierschaalporselein is als een oefening in vooruitzien op een toekomstig klimaat, om de poëzie van Aardse kwetsbaarheid en vergankelijkheid tot uitdrukking te brengen.
Aanraakbaar maken van tijd en klimaat vormt de kern van het werk. Daarbij worden verschillende methodes en media ingezet, van participatieve publieke interventies, het creëren van ruimtelijke stil-levens met ook levende mossen en wieren t/m 3d-technologie, tekst en fotografie.
Zorg voor de leefomgeving komt tot uitdrukking in uiterst spaarzaam energie- en materiaalgebruik in alle fases van het maakproces. 

Om als maker de reikwijdte van circulair sustainable conceptual ceramics | future paleo porcelain te onderzoeken is Jacqueline regelmatig artist-in-resident, recent bij BC3, Basque Center for Climate Change, in Bilboa Spain (2019); in EKWC, het Europees Keramisch Werk Centrum in 2020; EKWC 2021; Zone2Source 2021; Cascadas Artspace Barcelona 2022; Zone2Source 2022; ClayKitchen Portugal 2023; Zone2Source 2024; Kouraku Kiln, Arita Japan 2024; Cool Clay Collective in Rotterdam in 2025.

Kunst en educatie
Naast gastdocentschappen en als extern examen expert, ontwikkelt Jacqueline als artistic coach en – researcher nieuwe onderwijsprogramma’s op uitnodiging van kunstacademies en universiteiten. Sinds 2023 realiseert ze jaarlijks Arts & Ecologies: On Water voor studenten iArts, Maastricht Academy of Interdisiciplinary Arts met veldwerk en stakeholders ism Ronald Boer. In 2019-2020 ontwikkelde ze de pilot Beyond Technology – on pharmaceuticals in water – als testcase voor interdisciplinaire samenwerking tussen studenten van universiteiten en kunstacademies voor de Universiteit Twente, dept. Water Management in samenwerking met Art Academy ArtEZ, Art & Design. In 2015-2016 organiseerde ze artistieke veldlessen op de Zandmotor voor studenten Elements Lab Artscience Interfaculty KABK, Den Haag. 

Sinds 2015 is ze vrijwilliger in de archeologie (AWN); in 2022 werd ze voorzitter van de Nederlands-Belgische stichting Klimaatdichters.

BIO EN
Jacqueline Heerema is a Dutch conceptual artist, (sub)urban curator and tutor. She studied Monumental Art at the Royal Academy of Art The Hague, followed by Environment at the Royal Academy of Art The Hague, and Theoretical Museology at Leiden University. As an empirical artistic field researcher, she seeks multifaceted perspectives to create space for reciprocity and polyphony in a rapidly changing fragile world. Jacqueline is fascinated by perceptions of time and value systems, which we often take for granted.
She perceives art as public space and interconnects art and science with audiences.

Art as public space
In 2001, Jacqueline placed a swing in an open window frame to question the public role of art (institutions). This surreal and ephemeral public intervention took place in TENT exhibition space on Witte de Withstraat in Rotterdam. High above the street, the public could swing from inside to outside, or vice versa, for one afternoon.

Art and heritage: the shift from tangible to include also intangible heritage.
With a practice in art and heritage, she transformed a residential area into ‘Museum Oostwijk’ (2002-2009), deconstructed institutional museology in ‘The Chamber of Marvels’ (2008-2009) and is the inventor of Innovatory Heritage, in which the understanding of heritage shifts from static/exclusive to dynamic/inclusive. At the invitation of COMCOL, she shared her artistic insights with the presentation ‘Can art contribute to new concepts of heritage, museums, collections and society?’ during the annual international museum congress ICOMRio in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2013). About inclusion, to enhance the shift from tangible to include also intangible heritage.

Art, nature, and the collective: the shift from professional to include also public climate awareness
As part of her artistic practice, Jacqueline is co-founder and artist-curator of Satellietgroep. An international artist collective that explores the changing relationship between humanity and nature from an artistic perspective since 2006, with a focus on the sea, (coastal) landscape transitions, climate and the impact of humanity on the planet. For over 10 years she initiated and curated artist-in-residency programs with public expeditions in the Netherlands and abroad (Scheveningen, The Hague, Wadden, Afsluitdijk, Zandmotor, Belgium, New York, Japan, UK, Malta, Croatia, Lithuania, Russia, Georgia, Moldova,Turkey, 2009-2019). She was invited to speak at the European Parliament in Brussels on ‘Arts & Climate Change’ (COP 21, 2015). In 2018 she curated the exhibition program ‘Climate as Artifact – Klimaat als Mensenwerk’ in the Electriciteitsfabriek in The Hague. Five weeks of ongoing onsite artistic research and art production with workshops, seminars and public expeditions. Audiences could contribute to artistic research and gained access to other knowledge domains through the arts. In 2021, Delft University of Technology published her essay ‘Pioneering Sand Motor – Sand Motor as source to rethink anthropogenic coastal modifications of cultural public space’. She introduced the Sand Motor as Klimaatleerschool, a vital learning environment for climate, and the need for the shift from professional to enhance and include also public climate awareness.

Art and public, making time and climate tangible: it’s a Love Story!
In addition to projects about the sea, coasts, mudflats, polders, dikes, beach resorts, a rain river and the Sand Motor, she develops ‘The becoming, The being & The meanwhile’ since 2019. An art project about sensuality, sense of touch, vulnerability and climate themed around a constructed small swamp called Land in Wording in Amstelpark Amsterdam. She started in 2021 a Sphagnarium to learn to unconditionally collective care for a living collection of Dutch indigenous landscaping peat mosses and bring love into the climate discours.

At the intersection of art with paleontology, geology, archaeology, hydrology, and ecology, circular perceptions and makeabilty of time, matter, landscapes, and climate play a significant role in the work. The way in which natural and human induced forces intersect over time is the core fascination. Not only is a landscape explored, but also whether and how perception itself can be shaped. Can our imagination be further challenged, and is it possible to create a more affective, sensual worldview?

Casting the thinnest translucent eggshell porcelain is like an exercise in anticipating a future climate, to express the poetry of Earth’s vulnerability and transience.
Making time and climate tangible by touching upon time and climate is at the heart of the work.
Various methods and media are employed, from participatory public interventions and the creation of spatial still-lifes featuring living mosses and algae to 3D technology, text, and photography.
Care for the living environment is expressed in the extremely economical use of energy and materials in all phases of the creation processes.

To explore the scopes of circulair sustainable conceptual ceramics | future paleo porcelain, Jacqueline is regular artist-in-resident, most recently at BC3, Basque Center for Climate Change, in Bilboa Spain (2019); EKWC, the European Ceramic Work Center in 2020; EKWC 2021; Zone2Source 2021; Cascadas Artspace Barcelona 2022; Zone2Source 2022; ClayKitchen Portugal 2023; Zone2Source 2024; Kouraku Kiln, Arita Japan 2024; Cool Clay Collective in Rotterdam in 2025.

Art and education
In addition to guest lectureships and as external examination expert, Jacqueline develops new educational programs as an artistic coach and -researcher, invited by art academies and universities. Since 2023, she annually develops Arts & Ecologies: On Water for students of iArts, Maastricht Academy of Interdisciplinary Arts, involving fieldwork, stakeholders and audiences, icw Ronald Boer. In 2019-2020, she developed the pilot program ‘Beyond Technology – on pharmaceuticals in water’ as a test case for interdisciplinary collaboration between university and art academies students for the University of Twente, Water Management Department, in collaboration with the Art Academy ArtEZ, Art & Design. In 2015-2016, she organized artistic field lessons at the Zandmotor for students of the Elements Lab Artscience Interfaculty at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague.
