Sackgasse is a Belgian visual artist and photographer who graduated from LUCA School of Arts in Brussels.
His inspiration is often based on impermanence and decay.
He relives the childlike wonder at the beauty of stones, shells and insects when observing the traces of time and erosion on matter.
His chosen locations are diverse: cemeteries, abandoned villages, nature reserves, beaches, and old landfills.
His recent work consists mainly of close-ups that have an abstraction in them but show clear traces of a past referring to transience.
Through a harmonious and minimalist visual language, Sackgasse combines the conceptual nature of his art with a distinctly decorative value.
