The works of Krystel Geerts are united by the intangible nature of their surfaces and materiality. They appear fragile and open, like blurred memories of Baroque architecture, not least because the process of their creation is inscribed in the works.

Vernissage — Saturday 21/02 - 2:00 p.m.

Her sculptural practice investigates how form can function as a carrier. Drawing from the body and architecture, her work evolves through a somatic process in which the body functions simultaneously as measure and limit. She approaches the world as a field of infinite folds, unfolding not only in material form but also through experience.

 

Material actions such as folding, compressing, creasing, and allowing forms to collapse play a central role in shaping the work. The resulting surfaces act as imprints tactile archives holding traces of touch, force, and pressure.
