Den Houter showed his ice paintings for the first time in his solo EN WAT NU at Frank Taal gallery (November 2018). An ode to the moment and the experience, as he often does in his oeuvre.

Prior to that, he showed the ice paintings in 2017 during his residency and working period in Los Angeles.

At the same time, he also shows a photo print of one of his favorite ice paintings, thereby denying the concept and principle of the ice paintings. With this work he consciously opens himself up, vulnerable to criticism and doubt.
