Four artists will present a site-specific exhibition throughout the neighbourhood’s streets, squares, facades, and inside its bars, shops and institutes: Maud Gourdon, Sadrie Alves, Gilles Hellemans, Marjolein Guldentops & Emil Kerckhove.

Multidisciplinary artist 𝗦𝗮𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀 (°1997, Brasília, based in Antwerp) develops a body of work that operates in the fields of visual arts, design and performance. The core of her practice departs from drawing as a symbolic action and as a catalyst for affective narratives and collaboration. She sees drawing as writing as singing.

The work of 𝗘𝗺𝗶𝗹 𝗞𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗸𝗵𝗼𝘃𝗲 (°2000, Ghent, based in Turin) consists of spatial interventions situated between installation and sculpture. He is interested in how people relate to the landscape and how this influences and shapes the encounter between culture and nature. This research originates from pictures and drawings and takes scale as its main tool to develop imaginative travelling.

𝗠𝗮𝘂𝗱 𝗚𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗼𝗻 (°1991, Beauvais, based in Brussels) is a visual artist, with a background in illustration, who mainly experiments with the way language and linguistic principles can be used to create visual and spatial narratives. Gourdon’s installations tend to be rooted in intimate stories and familiar objects, which she intertwines with language games and, above all, coincidences, such as a slip of the pen or tongue.

𝗚𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀 (°1996, Lier, based in Brussels), visual artist, who’s multidisciplinary work takes shape through site-specific walks and observations of architecture, public space, and furniture. He immerses himself in the urban landscape, searching for the boundaries between personal visual attraction and an inherent sense of alienation.

Visual artist and performer 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗷𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗶𝗻 𝗚𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗽𝘀 (°1994, Mechelen, based in Brussels) explores the materiality of language and textual experience through writing and orality. She delves into themes of motion, place, and urban rhythms, investigating the interplay between the human body and spatial environments. Engaging with various linguistic systems, she conveys multiple layers of meaning and interpretation.

Catch us at Zsenne (Anneessensstraat 2) for a chat, the full brochure, and an explanation during the following opening hours. With the exception of the work of Sadrie, most work is also visible outside of opening hours.
