Back to Belgium!

I am super excited to announce that I will be moving back to Belgium in October.
The pull to come back home has become increasingly strong over the last few months with various requests for private classes, exhibition opportunities and a number of private commissions.
This means that I'll be looking for a new studio to paint and live, ideally in between Antwerp, Brussels and Ghent.
Do you know of any space for rent or know people who do? Please do get in touch!

Upcoming exhibition

ENSIMISMAMIENTO

One of those beautiful, untranslatable Spanish words meaning the withdrawal into one's inner self.
It is a reference to the 6 months I've spent in solitude in order to create this new body of work from the most honest, intuitive place within myself. The figures in this series of drawings are caught up in their own world, dancing their dance uninhibitedly and with full passion and power.

In 6 weeks Ensimismamiento will inaugurate at Las Colinas. I hope to meet you there!

Connecting with fellow artists

I took some time this month to visit a number of artists in their studios. Overwhelmed and slightly terrified by the approaching "art market", I wanted to learn from other artists how they balance the art with the business.

On one of those occasions I met with sculptors duo Coderch & Malavia in Valencia. Both having left their jobs 4 years ago, they clasped hands and grew an international recognition faster than I've seen any other artist do. Their sculptures existing somewhere between dream and reality, they shared with me some of their early-days stories and struggles as they worked their way to the top.
