I want to take forgotten parts of the everyday landscape out of their context and see what happens when they become the star.
For a short lapse of time, we will be exhibiting the Graduation installation of Guust Mathys in the gallery.
His master's thesis at LUCA School of Arts in Ghent touched us so deeply that we immediately wanted to offer him a platform. Discover this promising young talent who is shaping his own unique universe.
Using textiles, thread, filling, and oil paint, Guust brings everyday objects and creatures to life—alienating, tender, and unexpectedly familiar.
"I want to take forgotten parts of the everyday landscape out of their context and see what happens when they become the star. How do people react to something when it's in a gallery as opposed to when they encounter it on the street?" (Guust Mathys)
