SOUVENIR VENTRILOQUISTIQUE
Ben Zegers
Artist
Collection: Kleur & Ruimte

Ben Zegers wanted his spatial manuscript to be a sensual, rather than an analytical object. This is why he instinctively used ‘dirty’ colours, which shine through each other in various layers. The surface comes to life, as it were. Zegers shows how the abject can also be attractive. The manuscript invites the viewer to touch its smooth skin.
