Nel Aerts, Kasper Bosmans, Julien Meert. All three pay particular attention to line and graphic outcome, concerned by shape and provoking both an antique surveillance and a profound interest in trivial culture.
An Atlas, a book taking us back to childhood, leafing through pictures of travel, mysteries, and worlds unknown; operating as a large collage of images cut from photographs and documents, used to retrace history, boundaries, facts and beliefs.
Atlas takes its title from Jorge Luis Borges’ 1986 book of the same name, in which, he compiled fragments and musings from his journal alongside material from poetry, literature, and images. Evoking cartography, Borges created a personal geography.
It is precisely this idea of cartography, cherished by the writer, that gathers the three young Belgian artists presented at MOT INTERNATIONAL Brussels: Nel Aerts, Kasper Bosmans and Julien Meert.
All three pay particular attention to line and graphic outcome, concerned by shape and provoking both an antique surveillance and a profound interest in trivial culture.
