Art
May-May is trying to pass on God's messages with all that she does. Via photos which she makes with her mobile phone, she tries to capture the world as God shows it to her. She makes photos of God's light or asks others to photograph her with the light. Her art can be categorized as ''contemporary sacred art or spiritual art'' and as ''art brut or outsider art'". Contemporary sacred art refers to her connection with God. Art brut and outsider art refer to her vulnerability for psychosis.
God is with us. He is sending peace and love. He want us to have world peace and end of hunger. To take care of vulnerable people, animals and our planet. May we see soon: A World in Which All Children Can Play.

The beauty of nature
First row photo's 11 December 2021- 8 January 2022
In 2021, May-May was once again hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital for a month due to her psychosis. During her walks in the park, she took photos with her mobile phone of the swan family and the birds in the park. The swans got used to her. May-May felt as if God was showing her the beauty of nature to help her heal and to empower their joiont message - and the message of many others - to care for nature and to facilitate world peace. May we see soon: A World in Which All Children Can Play.

God's light and God's home, although God is everywhere, especially also in nature
Forced Hospitalization 2013 - 2014
God showed May-May the world through his eyes when she was in forced hospitalization. The title of the first photo is 'Carried by the White Light'. The white light reminded May-May of the song with the same name. The rose was a sign of beauty and hope, in the darkness of the patio of the closed department of the hospital. The Sint Vituskerk was hidden behind the fence, but she could catch a glimpse of it. The goose outside near the park seemed to announce the coming of a new world.
