°1970 in Antwerp, Belgium.
He creates sculptures and site-specific interventions, based on everyday objects
that he subtly employs to manipulate the environment and our perception. His work often incorporates
elements of trompe-l’oeil, which creates a slight sense of confusion for the viewer, while simultaneously
inviting us to break free from our conditioned way of seeing.
Tweelinckx’s simple, spontaneous, and often humorous interventions inspire wonder and provoke reflection.
They resolve contradictions and disrupt expectations. His refined, unforced artistic practice moves between
recognition and estrangement, between authenticity and illusion, between an unguarded gaze and intellectual
seriousness. With a sense of spontaneity and absurdity, he creates a universe where everyday objects effortlessly
metamorphose into sculptures and vice versa.
We recommend taking your time when viewing Roeland Tweelinckx’s work. Let it come to you slowly, so that it lingers long after.
