Although the emphasis in that book is on her life-size sculptures in clay, she is also skilled in drawing, painting and handmade animations. Her technical strength ensures that her sculptures breathe. With serenity and simplicity, she gives shape to the searching human being, in which themes such as identity and the passing of time are inextricably linked to the poetry of Steven Van Der Heyden. With words, he tries to leave the door ajar on the way to dialogue and anchoring. He wrote his poems in interaction with Katrin’s images. They are his source of inspiration. Together, they create a meeting in word and image. The story of this fascinating encounter was beautifully captured by photographer Stef De Belder.
Ryusaku Matsuda
€39.90Transience is the central concept in the art of Ryusaku Matsuda, the grand master of contemporary Japanese floral art. His large-scale installations are a cross between traditional Ikebana and Land Art. Although his own emotional world often serves as the inspiration for the creation of a particular work, Matsuda does not consider himself an artist.
