SMAK proposal for the 'Kotroute'

For my participations in the 'Kotroute' in Ghent, the organisers wanted me to show work at the museum of contemporary art (SMAK), the starting location for the event.

I proposed a 'ceiling drawing' which wasn't accepted for technical reasons.
Eventually I projected drawings on the double height wall behind the reception and showed drawing 'Without title' No.36.

Now to find a ceiling I CAN draw on...

Award at University of Leuven

In 2011, the University of Leuven was looking for an artwork that would appeal to the students and be fully integrated in their new building, designed by famous Belgian architect Jo Crepain.

My proposal for a 20m x 2m wall drawing was awarded as one of three winners. I used 40 water-resistant and light-fast markers, and made the drawing in 7 days.

At the opening reception I was handed the prize from the council member for culture of the city of Leuven.
The art-work can be seen at Herestraat 49, Leuven / Belgium.

For the group exhibition 'Urbania Cityminds' I made this 15m long drawing on a wall in the restaurant of the Apollo Art Hotel.

It took 10 days and 37 black markers to complete the drawing. The drawing was made during the day, while the restaurant was still open, as a performance piece.

At the end of the exhibition, the Apollo Art group bought the work.
It can still be visited at Handboogstraat 1, 8000 Brugge, Belgium.
