“Art is part of life.”
Denis Meyers (BE, 1979) is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Brussels. He trained in graphic design and typography at La Cambre and is best known for his iconic “faces”. These are portraits of strangers, made with bold areas of colour and thick black lines, which he has pasted in hidden corners of cities around the world since 2000. Today he spends more and more time painting in the studio. His broad acrylic brushstrokes and drips meet soft, sprayed lettering that runs from one canvas to the next. Writing becomes a visual rhythm rather than a message.
