Ellen De Meutter

28/02/2010 - 11/04/2010

With her paintings, Ellen De Meutter (1981 Merksem) has succeeded in positioning herself as one of Belgium’s most prominent painters in just a few years’ time. In her use of colour and the application of paint, Ellen De Meutter combines lightheartedness with a certain sense of gravity. Colours and paint strokes blend both harmoniously and conflictively, which produces a strange painterly tension. The result is paintings that challenge the spectator into an intense exploration throughout a remarkable iconography.
