She investigates the state of disconnection that arises from the spaces she has sought out, such as dead corners of office buildings, waiting rooms or empty corridors in hotels. More recently, Sleeuwits has started constructing new environments within such spaces, using materials she finds there, such as laminate flooring, tape and sticking tiles. She currently lives and works in The Hague and is represented by Liefhertje en de Grote Witte Reus, The Hague.
