Komt uit de beroemde tentoonstelling in het bonefanten museum
Scholte started collecting embroidery in 2005 immediately after returning to the Netherlands from a long stay abroad. The artist trawls second-hand shops and car boot sales searching for embroideries, and in his own words "refuses to believe in the uninterested stupidity with which the Dutch favour Ikea prints over traditional, handmade embroidery. Work created anonymously, stitch by stitch by our mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers and great-great-grandmothers (and sometimes men), and done with so much devotion and patience in what scarce leisure hours they had. […] The yield of many long weeks, months and even years of hard toil are discarded so casually by today’s inheritors and keepers, for the sake of a couple of Euros.”
