The women in Maayke’s work are often known as symbols of strength and successful emancipation. Examples include Michelle Obama and Andrée Putman. The theme of ‘women’s rights’ is also addressed, such as in the work ‘She Decides’ and ‘The Feminist Movement study’.

In the work ‘L’heure des Loups’ Angelina Jolie is central as a strong woman. She is accompanied by 6 wolves, her children. Who is sacrificed here..

Angelina Jolie combines her beauty and sex appeal with daring choices that she made in her life and that serve as an example to many.

‘L’heure des Loups’ is a large and impressive work of which only 1 copy has been made. Angelina is completely hand-cut from linoleum and then printed on Koshi Machi paper, which is handmade for Maayke in Japan. The wolves are drawn in pencil and the carcass, which they feed on, is painted with acrylic paint. The work is framed in a frame, with a color specifically developed for Maayke. The whole is provided with real museum glass by Profilex, who provides framing for many museums in Amsterdam.

The work was supposed to be exhibited in 2020, but this could not take place due to Covid-19.
