Jean-Luc Moerman

The artistic vocabulary of the self-taught Jean-Luc Moerman draws heavily on the worlds of graffiti and hip hop, as well as American comics and Pop Art. The artist presents a multifaceted and teeming body of work whose framework is centred on drawing, as evidenced by *Connectingthings*. His networks of undulating, shifting lines unfold across a wide variety of media and contexts (on paper, canvas, mirrors, aluminium, stickers, neon lights, photographs, skin… in public spaces and urban environments as well as in galleries and museums, on walls, floors and ceilings…). The artist breaks down barriers and unsettles. He uses both black and white and fluorescent colours. His profusion of intertwining patterns has a highly organic character, which nevertheless seems to belong to the realm of science fiction. The motifs spread, grow and eventually come to life alongside those who choose to pay attention to them (as is the case in the streets of Brussels).
