Danny (he/him) is an interdisciplinary artist working across acting, performance art, and writing. His work explores themes such as queer identity, duality, spirituality, mysticism, and surrealism. In his performances, the body serves as the central medium of expression: through subtle yet powerful body language, he creates layered works in which symbolism, music, and ritual converge. His work navigates corpo/reality, duality, and embodied presence, interrogating the ideological architectures that seek to standardize, discipline, and mute the human form.
Under his artistic aliases Danny Faye and planetvillager, he presents performances that range from accessible, audience-focused pieces to more conceptual βcorpo realityβ works for niche audiences. The human body as a visual medium for emotions, feelings, and thoughts, which he manifests as pride and a celebration for free expression in the modern world. Disconnected from any labels.The pure and true form of self-expression without any taboos or barriers

The deconstruction of dogmaβparticularly those embedded within social and political ideologiesβrecurs throughout planetvillagerβs oeuvre. By reframing normative perspectives, his work exposes the distortions through which contemporary society perceives bodies and identities, and the resulting fractures in authentic selfhood. Refusing categorization and resisting spectacle for its own sake,
planetvillager adopts an investigative, poetic approach. At its core, his practice is an act of devotion: a romanticization and adoration of the human body in its totality, offered as both subject and sovereign presence.
As an actor, Danny has appeared in films such as Maar, Mama (2024), Unwatered Flowers (2025), Los Zand (2025), and his very first film Tarek (2024).
He also appeared in the television program Project Rembrandt (2024), was regularly seen as an extra in Flikken Maastricht, and played a waiter in the film Rokjesnacht by Johan Nijenhuis.

Alongside his work on screen and stage, Danny has been active as a nude model for galleries and art studios since 2010. And therfore usually blends corpo reality with performance
Danny identifies as pansexual and queer. He strongly supports the queer community while remaining open to diverse voices and perspectives beyond existing frameworks.
With roots in Hinduism and an appreciation for Christianity, Danny is not strictly religious but considers himself agnostic. For many years, he struggled with his ADHD diagnosis, but has transformed it into a source of strength and creativity. He is also a devoted lover of animals and permacuture, and would ideally love to live on a farm.
