CURRICULUM (Nederlands)


Daisy (1948) studied art at the Sissa school in Antwerp. She then followed a course in interior design and ceramics at the Academy of Fine Arts in Mol.

During her stay in South Africa (1981-1986) she completed a course in ceramic art.
In her atelier in Johannesburg she developed her own personal style.

She was selected to become a member of ‘The Association of Potters of S.A’ and the ‘Artist Under the Sun Association’.

She has been selected for the National Ceramic Exhibition in Johannesburg several times.

Her works were exhibited in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Sasolburg, Durban and Capetown.

Her art is appreciated by an international public and her collectors come from Australia, New-Zealand, South Africa, U.S.A, Canada, Hong Kong, Germany, France, the Netherlands and U.K.

Back in Belgium in 1987 she created her ‘Bo-mannetje’ (mannetje = little man), personalising man in his most primitive form. His structure is rudimentary, and curiously, he is without a face. Each man is the same, and yet so different.

Square in face, their heads symbolise an unbending resistance to life’s challenges. Boman believes we are all ‘from the same mould’, injured by the society in which we dwell.

After several exhibitions in Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Great Britain, her work was discovered by the Halcyon Gallery in London who proposed to represent her work worldwide.

There was a major exhibition of Boman’s work in the Halcyon Gallery, 29 Bruton Street and at the same time in New Bond Street, London in November 2008.

Her artworks are sold all over the world.
