Xu Lemm, from 3 October at Atelier VO2 max

Xu Lemm (Kurt Lemmens) was born in Leuven on the 28th of May 1970. After managing an SME from 2000 till 2016, Kurt Lemmens decided to devote the remainder of his life to his passion: pictorial and sculptural art.

His artistic production can be divided into two periods:

1) Pixel Art: In his first period, he created small and large canvases using a 'pixel-art' technique. The pixels consisted of small diameter spheres made from recycled ocean plastic which he covered with up to 8 layers of paint to produce hundreds of kinds of the different hues.

2) Sculptural Art: After exhausting the possibilities of the pixel art technique, Xu Lemm turned to his real passion, sculpture. In moments of inspiration, a complete picture of a sculpture takes shape in the artist’s mind which is then made visible by being modeled in clay. The clay model is subsequently produced in a variety of sizes by casting in different metals like bronze, brass, aluminum, and steel. Some sculptures are also made from painted polyester.

From 3 October, works by Xu Lemm will be exhibited at Atelier VO2 max.

Sun Chariots by Thomas Huyghe

With his work Sun Chariots, artist Thomas Huyghe comes completely off the wall. The paintings form an independent sculpture that can be arranged in modifiable form. The round supports in plexi are painted with faces showing full-on toothpaste smiles. In his highly original way, Thomas Huyghe is very much concerned with analyzing the power of the image. How images influence us and how we are manipulated, consciously or unconsciously, by images.
