Louise Mertens - Antwerp Art Weekend

AM DESIGNS is  delighted to represent the Antwerp-based visual artist LOUISE MERTENS during this year’s (atypical) edition of ANTWERP ART WEEKEND.

See this gallery in the original post

Louise created a complete series without using portraits or the human form, and visualizes the beauty of the coral’s dying process. Fascinated and concerned by the effects of global warming, she looks at the aesthetics of the perishable, the vulnerable and the fragile straight in the eye. The beautiful colors that corals expose when they take their last breath, the white skeletons, the grey inanimate colors and the elegant algae that envelop the dead coral.

Wednesday to Friday: 10 AM to 6 PM
Saturday: 11 AM to 6 PM
