Line 26 ⟶ 28:
* Een totaal eigen techniek wordt gebruikt door Wietske van Leeuwen. Zij maakt mallen van bestaande vruchten of schelpen in gips en drukt hierin plakjes klei waarmee ze haar objecten opbouwt. Er is aan de binnenkant net zoveel zorg besteed als aan de buitenkant en de dubbelwandige dozen moeten eigenlijk opengemaakt worden. De weelderige tafelstukken uit de zeventiende eeuw vormen haar inspiratiebron. We zien de afbeeldingen van rijkelijk gevulde tafels voor ons met parelhoen en fazant, waarbij de torenhoge stapelingen van vruchten de weelde nog eens benadrukken. Van tafelstuk tot kaststel weet Wietske van Leeuwen deze antieke pronkstukken weer een hedendaagse vorm te geven."
** "Dozen van Klei" (2002),
* Van Leeuwen creates strikingly baroque objects, made up of many small prints of shells and fruit, which remind of the curio cabinets that were in fashion in the 17th century and admired by her. It was in vogue among the wealthy merchants of that era to collect new types of fruit and shells that were brought back by the VOC ships, in such cabinets. Van Leeuwen uses shells and fruit to make plaster press moulds, which are then used for producing large quantities of prints. From these prints she creates her objects, always using the pot or dish shape as a basis. Her objects are flawless both on the inside and outside, a ceramic tour de force. She uses dishes and pots with lids as her base shapes. In addition, she creates combinations of ceramic "garnitures", which were also common during the 17th century."

== Van Leeuwen and sharks ==
About my deletion of the following text part:
:"In 1997 her work participated in the conceptual Shark Art Gallery in Rotterdam by Marcel Douwe Dekker, where the work was exhibited down deep in a tank with white sharks."
There aren't any neutral sources that corroborate the notability of this event, let alone its importance to Van Leeuwen's career. The only very rare sources to be found are mostly either webpages set up by Marcel Douwe Dekker himself or pages directly related to them.
