SOLO SHOW
Vessels
Opening: Thursday October 19, 19-10pm
Witold Vandenbroeck’s main inspiration lies in the relationship between us and our surroundings and how this relationship impacts our capacity to perceive, act in and think about the landscape around us. The act of painting itself is for him a way to explore and nourish this connection since the engagement with its stubborn matter and the resulting friction forces one to be sensitive to what wants to happen, to leave behind preconceived ideas and ambitions and to try to embrace this resistance of the material and enter in the forward movement of the work’s ongoing generation. This is a state of being that lingers and slowly infiltrates all aspects of life. From this intuitive way of working a constellation of archetypes such as volcanos, arteries, stones and pottery has emerged whom are continuously forming new connections and combinations. The paintings thus do not stand alone but form a long chain of impressions, one flowing over in the next. It is precisely here, between one and the other in this sequence as experienced by the viewer, that their ‘meaning’ develops.
Witold Vandenbroeck (Leuven, °1994) graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp in 2021 with a masters degree in Painting and holds a masters degree in Civil Engineering and Architecture from the KULeuven. The past two years he has co-founded FAAR collective and continues to develop his painting practice.
