Valérie Mannaerts
Dynamically collaging across mediums—from paint to bronze, papier-mâché to concrete—Valérie Mannaerts (born 1974 in Brussels, where she lives and works) playfully arranges sculptural elements to create spatial installations, scenographies without stages. As scales oscillate and materials remain staunchly mercurial, the works exist in a space of deliberate ambiguity, sitting on the threshold between object and image.
