This very nice photography event takes place every 2 years in the pretty region of Condroz.
I particularly admired the work of the british photographer and chemical explorer Matthew Houston’s who displays a series of beautiful, sexy young females in the nude as well as photograms, abstract photos and darkroom experimentations.

July 30th, 2015July travels bring inspiration and research with the visit of the cities of Bologna, Ferrara and Venezia.

Ferrara’s netted churches and velvet curtains, a painting at the beautiful “Proportio” exhibition at Palazzo Fortuny in Venise, painted curtain installation by Katharina Grosse at the Arsenale.
Izhar Patkin’ painted net curtain and 1632 painting of ghostly characters, both at Palazzo Fortuny, Adam Pendleton’s silkcreened installation at the Belgian Pavilion, Glenn Ligon’s black silkscreened text and Oscar Murillo’s dirty canvas in the Arena pavilion.
Labod’arte Ferrara
July 26th, 2015A 10 day residency/ workshop working with textiles in Ferrare for sessione Labod’arte, hosted at the beautiful Wunderkammer site with a view on the river Po. Nadia, Véronique and Patricia are the main participants with a few interventions by the kids. We worked with a minimum of equipment, sticking to the 3 colours: blue, black and with the following techniques: shibory, bleaching, silkscreening and cyanotype.
The aim was to explore and mix the techniques on a 50x70cm surface using objects from the surrounding to create an image.
