Bram Vanderbeke is a Belgian artist and designer from Ghent, graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven. His work blends sculptural strength with functional design, exploring the interaction between objects, space, and users. Vanderbeke creates “Architectural Objects” and rhythmic installations that transform spatial perception. His pieces emphasize rhythm and context, with a focus on stacking forms and revealing hidden functions. Co-founder of the design collective BRUT, his work balances experimental exploration with intentional design, creating monumental, tactile, and thought-provoking objects.
John Hoste (°1962, Ghent) is a versatile artist whose light art blends technology, recycling, and poetry. Using reclaimed materials like glass, metal, and plastic, he creates luminous compositions that invite interaction and spark imagination. His work radiates optimism and playfulness while honoring the materials’ history. With a background in electronics, Hoste fuses art, technique, and sustainability. Alongside his partner, Stephan Chavatte, he develops a unique aesthetic language, with each piece offering a tactile encounter between reason and emotion.
Z E R O explores the intersection of consciousness, physics, and art through an experimental and poetic approach. Three identical catapults, inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s design, launch oil paint projectiles that converge at a central point, each representing a primary color symbolizing creative potential. Upon impact, the projectiles burst open, creating spontaneous color patterns captured in photographs. The work visualizes the “zero-sphere,” a model of consciousness, merging science and spirituality to explore how observation shapes reality in both quantum physics and nonduality.
