jonas vansteenkiste: Hulste, West vlaanderen, Belgium; The works of the young artist Jonas Vansteenkiste are defined by spaces. He uses several media, i.e. installations, video, sculpture, photos and drawings. He refers and uses – both in a physical and psychological way – architectural elements. He builds up spaces, or creates situations which can best be defined as “mental spaces”. Keeping this in mind, Jonas defines and creates his works. These works depart from a personal experience where the anecdotal is moved to the background where it is further purified into a “basso continuo” used to build upon. He approaches the medium “installation” as one of reference and experience. He thus places the spectator in an active role: he invites him to step into the work and situate himself – both mentally and physically – in it. The artist also leaves room for the spectator to add his own personal experiences in these installations, which are not only the “relevant” place for the artist, but also for the spectator.
