Joke Hansen
°1979, Bilzen, Belgium.
Lives in Bilzen and works in Hasselt, Belgium.
Joke Hansen challenges the physical boundaries of painting. She trades in the traditionally shaped rectangular surface for an infinite array of forms and shapes. How does the shaped canvas react to the paint and brushstrokes? Or is the form of the surface dictating the gestures of the artist? With Joke Hansen, on the verge of both comfort and discomfort, a formal exchange of impulses emerges, which always seems to arrive at an open ending.
