JAN VAN COILLIE

artist|painter

Jan Van Coillie is a sculptor. His focus is not on the creation of a single iconic work that consumes him for a long period, but rather on a strong creative process where every piece matters.

All the daily chaos, unrest, information, and emotion are released onto canvas, paper or plastic without a specific goal, like automatic writing (écriture automatique). This takes shape in visual diaries and works of various sizes.

This results in an infinite reservoir of visual material that is profoundly confrontational for the viewer.
