Liesbeth Henderickx's creations invite us to reconsider how we underestimate the worth of the everyday, and to purposefully integrate construction elements into our vicinity.
Henderickx unravels ways to demand attention for often-overlooked details, to avoid becoming blind to what we have come to take as a given. Growth stalls when we cease to acknowledge the patterns within which we live, as is shown by the artist's vision on craftsmanship that harbours respect and a sense of wonder for the space objects and materials are allotted. A mountain rock exists as a bathroom tile elsewhere.
She prefers it when the connection between individuals and their environment can be as comfortable as a cushioned coat. Her work sets out to re-think the bond between people and materials, bodies and architecture. In addition, her installations and concepts pay homage to the freedom to create, craftsmanship, and the pursuit of progress. The artist reminds us that beauty takes shelter in the things we think we know, as long as we are willing to look towards them with restored wonder.
