Born in 1971 in Amsterdam.

 

In the video One Moment Please (2002), four inhabitants of Toulouse from different quarters, cultures and social classes tell their lives to Margot van Ham. In this work, the artist analyses the way in which personal histories are linked to collective histories. In this case, the Garonne is the pretext that anchors these biographical narratives.
