TOM DE GRAEVE
(born Ghent, Belgium, 1968)
Painter
Tom has been working on an extensive paintings cycle using the following themes:
- Listen To Your Eyes: the outer seen
- Colors Of My Soul: the inner seen
- Present Of Our Future: the already seen
Listen To Your Eyes is a framework of reflection and an analysis of the representation of the eye: the outer seen. The paintings reflect on the differences between looking and seeing. The eyes don’t speak, yet, in human communication, they can say everything. Colors Of My Soul We absorb information yet we share emotions: the inner seen. The soul is the organism of the senses. The eye doesn’t see itself as another. Lighting up an inner light: the thought of an own identity. Present Of Our Future Conscious and unconscious, the 2 parts of the human being, rarely meet. The abstract & virtual review of life: the already seen. Tom has worked on the preparation and the paintings themselves in several locations (Mauritius, South-Africa, Barcelona, Paris, Istanbul, Brussels and Lisbon). The paintings cycle will be exhibited in selected locations worldwide.
Next expo: Istanbul March 2010
