Artist Statement We recently met with the Ghent-based artist Karolien Soete to discover her new work. They form a break with the past, as well as a continuation of it, even a deepening of her major themes.
In this new work Karolien digs very deep in her own past. The objects she carried with her since her youth, the rooms in which she used to live, are projected with ink on large canvases. But memories are fragile, untrustworthy in a way. They are the result of an inevitable process of decay.
