Chris Vercruysse (°1971) - contemporary drawing

Chris follows drawing classes at the Sint-Lucas Academy in Ghent. He mainly works with Indian ink and uses bamboo brush and/or pen. The ink is applied in various dilutions to the prepared or unprepared paper, whereby the layering provides depth. The outlet he found in drawing can be read in the emotion/visual language that speaks from the cavities, holes or passages that characterize his work.  These cavities are used to help drawing/expressing emotions of pain, disgust, sadness, wonder and happiness.  They symbolize the possibility of change in emotional, mental and physical live of people.
