Frits van Achten

Julie Illegems
​
Julie is an illustrator, costume designer and visual artist from Herent. Her ceramic sculptures have an earthy feel, embodying a lost connection between man and nature. Her love for archaeology and architecture are reflected in her sculptures, which are like soil finds of an ancient culture that have seen the light again.

Sarah Bourlard
​
Sarah is an artist from Waterloo who creates amazing wooden sculptures using only a chainsaw. Here, the brutal saw cuts and surprisingly refined anatomy provide a fascinating contrast.

Sophie Giet
Sophie is an artist from liège who creates sculptures and functional art. Her ceramic characters contain a healthy dose of humor and quirkiness. The various ornaments, texts and graphic finishings that she decorates her sculptures with often carry a double degree of reading.
​
Raphaël De Bois
​
Raphaël is an artist from the Antwerp area. For many years, he has been creating cheerful portraits with the aim of putting a smile on your face. His unique characters fill the space with positive energy and you spontaneously become cheerful when you come face to face with them.
Come and greet them for yourself in the gallery now!

Taco Sipma
​
Taco is a Dutch artist with an amazingly original handwriting. His works are rooted in the tradition of folk/outsider art and lean heavily on symbolism, popular culture, religion and delusion. His technique is raw and leans heavily on improvisation. Taco's complexly layered paintings are narrative but remain open to interpretation.
​
Charly Vanzwijgenhoven
​
Charly is a local artist from Sint-Truiden, He is known in the region for his artworks that he creates using recycled materials. Old rulers, antique receipts and empty snail shells from a local nursery are collected and transformed into interesting decorative works of art in which you can discover something new every time.

Eric Denker
​
Eric is an artist from Sint-Truiden who had not presented his black and white monotypes anywhere until now. The works mainly date from the time when he went through a long and tough recovery period after a car accident. In making art, Eric found a way to vent his physical and mental struggles. In his work the ‘darkness’ and the ‘light’ fight for attention; sometimes the darkness seems to win out, sometimes the light pops through the darkness like liberation. At other times, the light source is again very diffuse and gives a more serene atmosphere, a kind of resignation. Eric's emotions are clearly in these works; powerful, poetic and refined at the same time. We are happy that they can now finally be admired by everyone.
