Textures, materials and experimentation are an essential component of Dekyndt’s artistic research, offering the viewer a profound visual experience that transcends the boundaries of artistic convention. Her practice revolves around a language that is both spare and poetic, and a highly evocative materiality. Using conceptual, scientific and experimental approaches, she meticulously deconstructs the signs of her process, bringing to light a symbolic reality that defies conventional narratives.
Through meticulous research of the Foundation’s archive documents, Edith Dekyndt presents works imagined for this exhibition, highlighting the working processes and new facets of Walter Leblanc’s artistic trajectory.
This approach transcends temporal boundaries, revealing a powerful synergy between past, present and future, as well as between the works of the two artists.
Founded in 2006 as a non-profit organisation, the Walter & Nicole Leblanc Foundation has as its mission to study, preserve and promote the artistic legacy of Walter Leblanc.
