Traditionally, a collector is someone who preserves and maintains objects, while a maker consumes and reconstructs them. This suggests a certain contradiction in Erik’s dual identity—on one hand, he values objects in their original form, yet on the other, he transforms them through art, giving them new shapes and meanings. Thus, Erik Lijzenga’s identity lies between that of a collector and that of an artist. These two roles are interconnected but by no means identical.
