In 1988, under a pseudonym, he presents Peintures-Schilderijen,
a collection of 15 artists invented from scratch (with supporting biographies)
with as proclaimed objective to break with styles, creating confusion and
interpreting artistic currents in implosive scenarios
It is during that period
that he made his large installations combining painting and objects, around
general themes, emphasising the manipulations that images can serve, including
in the artistic field. Humour and poetic evocation, however, prevent the work
from appearing unnecessarily moralizing. Thus, from the adjective ‘cerebral’,
often used by art critics, he imagines the pictorial painting style referring
to it and adds a ceramic brain, placed on a pedestal.
