Creator and weaver of hopes and dreams
What thrives me the most in life.
The bridge, the connection between art & consciousness.
The healing arts, the art of healing, the art of life.
Creating healing biotopes & spheres.
The artist serves as a mirror of consciousness, an explorer of awareness, a transformer of collective understanding, a channel through which insight flows, and an integrator of the inner and outer worlds.
My heart expands if I can create spheres, healing biotopes,
it's always creating the right conditions for people to find their way home within.
And with each healing, you peel of a piece of your puzzle of life.
It can be a profound piece, that is ever life changing.
I believe that everything is possible.
Everything.
Come believe with me.
Ike & oyo is me.
Ike, the electrified version of me, inge kerfs,
and oyo is a given name from the spirit realms.
Both are intertwined in everything I do.
As I see the physical world is just one fragment
of the whole.
So they are in a constant dance with the two of them.
Ike & Oyo.
All aspects of me.
BIO in very short​
​
Ever since I was born, some 49 years ago, the joke in my family was that I was swapped out of the hospital. My growing up was marked by wild years. I grew up in a bar, mothers side, a record store & bicylce store in one, fathers side.
I’ve always lived in freedom — a freedom I learned to cultivate. There was always an inner knowing we come from the stars, we are galactic human beings having this life experience. I always longed for home. Through the years I learned that home was inside of me. Since I was young, I’ve been conscious of life communicating through energy, and of all the beings that exist in other realms, that we are all connected with the whole wide web of everything that excists.
​
Life threw me many beautiful lessons.
​
Travel became an essential ingredient in my journey — there is still so much to discover, yet I’ve been blessed to explore some far corners of this planet, honoring the many cultures, colors, and encounters that shaped me.
My homes have shifted as often as my journeys.
​
I worked for a good twenty years in the art world, creating performances and shows in both theatre and street theatre. There were countless projects, and I had the privilege of collaborating with many beautiful souls — co-creators and diverse artist collectives. Tours, events, festivals... they filled those years with movement and meaning.
​
Life itself became my school of awareness.
​​
I also followed many teachings, since a good ten years I start following trainings, programs, retraites, workshops, ... in soundhealing, shamanic teachings, energy work, etc....
​
In the funnel of my life, I am now creating the best version of myself — blending all my life experiences with my medicine, my visions, and my heart.
Ike & Oyo is the expression of that beautiful alchemy.
​
Aho.

Reveries
​
What to say about one persons life, right?
It s always so layered and not just downsized into what your degrees or professions where or are. I'm more interested in people passions and desires and medecine they carry and how and what they are gonna express and explore in this life to be that medecine.
​​
I always have seen and approached life as a quest, as an adventure I have to learn how to play. The key is always to find the right waves and surf on them. The closest I get is to be a wanderer on this planet. Every time I travelled for a longer period I got to that feeling, stepping off a plane, and going of, with no direction, just intuition and inner guidance and from above, letting myself be steered by the winds, this is probably what I love doing the most.
​​
But life asks to not only be and get lost,
but also to do.
I love doing!
I graduated at the Royal Arts Academy in Ghent in Belgium. I got a master degree and never went to get my certificate. I knew that life was never about that certificate. And I never had to show it anywhere because I created my own 'work' always and it never was real work.

​
I worked many years in the art world as being an artist.
My fields of interest where always a bit cross-over, I was a scenographer in the theatre, also a light designer, video and photo was already a passion when I was very young. I created theatre, streettheatre, shows, was active in different artist collectives. Toured many years with many shows and performances on countless festivals, events, cultural centers, etc ...
​​
I always struggled with the 'frame' where things were organised, that didn't really fit my vision. I wanted people to experience themselves the most and not be just entertainment, as a distraction from the outside, as a filling in their gaps, no, I want to create innertainment that moves from within and so they go home with a piece of their own puzzle.
​​
I am all about the art of life itself. I have an endless curiosity how it plays out and how to ride the tights. It has endless possibilites and in this era that we are in, it is very much accelerated in extremes we are shown on our planet every day.
I believe that art is a force of transformation — it heals when it flows from true alignment. It carries vibrations that touch and restore. I honor the deep knowing that our bodies are magnificent temples, far more powerful than we dare to imagine.
