Light” will be exhibited in VOLTA ‘18 at the Gallery Jan
Dhaese booth (B13).
“Illusive Flesh of Light” is a response to the sudden deaths of
the artist’s father and sister. In these mixed media works, forms
are disintegrated and boundaries are dissolved, leaving in sight
the signs of the process. As a memento mori, Brouckaert’s work
reflects on mortality and the vanity of life in the
hyper-consumer world of today.
