The works deal with urbanity, rhythm and interiority and start from the soul felt by me in a certain place. These works shouldn\u0026rsquo;t give themselves away immediately, therefor the 3-dimensionality, visible layers and the possibility to look in. These works are going from the outside to the inside. On the one hand they deal with solidarity and universalism, with collectivity. On the other hand with urbanization and appropriation. Also with the pressure by the environment becomes this big on a living body that a language appears. It is the city and the place in general as a living organism, with a specific soul, that inspires. That soul can be linked with personal emotions but pulls as much its identity out of the variety of measurements, divisions, rhythms in buildings and streets, in urbanization, that define the character of a given city. It is the contemporary impact of the place on collective consciousness that I transform into transcendence.\u0026quot;\u0026nbsp;\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026minus; AMVK\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u0026quot;Deze reeks gaat over urbanisme, ritme en innerlijkheid.

De werken hebben met stedelijkheid, ritme en het innerlijke te maken en vertrekken vanuit de ziel die ik voel in een bepaalde plaats of stad. Deze werken kan men niet in \u0026eacute;\u0026eacute;n oogopslag duiden en interpreteren, vandaar de 3-dimensionaliteit, zichtbare gelaagdheid en mogelijkheid tot inkijken. Het zijn werken die via de buitenkant naar de binnenkant gaan. Ze hebben enerzijds met samenhorigheid, universalisme en met collectiviteit te maken. Anderzijds met stedelijkheid en beheersing. Wanneer de druk, uitgeoefend door de aanwezige omgeving op een menselijk lichaam zo groot wordt kan een taal ontstaat. Het is de stad en de plaats als levend organisme, met een specifieke ziel die inspireert. Die ziel is te vereenzelvigen met persoonlijke emoties maar haalt evenzeer haar identiteit uit de verzameling indelingen, onderverdelingen en ritmes in de gebouwen, straten; in de urbanisatie, die het karakter bepalen van de bewuste stad. Het is de hedendaagse impact van de plaats op het gemeenschappelijk bewuste die ik verwerk tot transcendentie.\u0026quot;\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u0026minus; AMVK\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e(Respectant l\u0026rsquo;\u0026eacute;quilibre \u0026eacute;ternel: Je me suis contorsionn\u0026eacute;(e) quatre fois, James \u0026ndash; New York)\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u0026quot;Cette s\u0026eacute;rie traite d\u0026rsquo;urbanisme, de rythme et d\u0026rsquo;int\u0026eacute;riorit\u0026eacute;.
