HBX / Hope Box is the collective noun for mobile art-projects I create and initiate since 1991.
WR / Weather Report is a unique series of collaborative works of art. In each work of art five
artists from the four winds are represented. On her travels, Rienke seeks dialogue with colleague artists. From those encounters works of art come into being in which different points of view by artists from divergent areas fuse into a rich and layered image of reality. By now more than 150 artists from more than 30 countries have cooperated in Weather Report. Hundreds of 'fused' works have already been exhibited in leading exhibition venues in the countries involved. Now, after two decades of initiating artistic collaborations all over the world, Weather Report has arrived in its last episode. This and coming year it will be completed by the inclusion of the last continent to be explored: Latin America.

HBX P4P / Peace for peace is a worldwide trace of community art pieces made by local en
international Hope Box Angels artists within the theme of peace. With the HBX Piece for Peace we wish to bring people together and leave behind a positive and meaningful work of art on a central spot in the community.

HBX CHA / Children/youngsters Art advocates art as a force to help children and youngsters
to discover their possibilities. HBX CHA initiates art-activities for children and youths with
inspiration sources such as storytelling, philosophy, music and dance to come up with the most effective way to express and visualize thoughts, dreams and new visions.

HBX ICE / Ice cream Event is a travelling interactive HBX Weather Report exhibition with
plenty of HBX art-activities and a spectacular ‘finissage’ with music and dance. After the HBX Ice Cream Event a meaningful trace of HBX P4P art is left behind.

Hope Box grew into what it is now. Its seed was planted two decades ago. I wish it to be pure and
true, big and warm something that faces reality takes action and at the same time reminds
people of the beauty of the world, the good things in life. A collective effort to present a more
complete image of reality in our works of art to make life more colourful, just and positive.”
