Two paintings of a wing mirror without reflection evoke the absence of looking back, focusing on the mirror as an object. This mirror symbolizes safety and control, probing the viewer's role as a motorist, highlighting themes central to the artist's work. ‘No, no! Only as fast as possible without stress’ beckons you to contemplate the paradoxes of comfort, the impermanence of rest, and power dynamics ingrained in the fabric of our modern world.

Even a stopped clock is right two times a day explores the open space taking shape within this loop, where existing meanings and interpretations become echoes.
A collective space takes shape through the works of Jan Duerinck, Bram Van Breda and writer Gerlinde Van Puymbroeck, in which their utterances intertwine with those of the visitor.

Where is the line between constructed space and lived space? ‘The city as it is made and conceived’ versus ‘the city as it is lived, experienced and filled in’. The tension between and within the lived and planned city. “De Geleefde Stad” shows works that investigate and question this dispersion in public space.
