Robin Berrewaerts
Robin lives and works in Brussels. His work lies at the intersection of furniture and sculpture, with a strong emphasis on materiality and craftsmanship, using wood as the medium. He experiences working with wood as a physical interaction between material and artist. This process comes with its own techniques and peculiarities of language and vocabulary. The transformation from tree to object resembles a journey, one that involves finding the right time and tools to develop character and create identity. Different approaches result in unique objects that evoke curiosity.
Many of Robin’s works incorporate the color black. The act of making a piece black—whether through oxidizing, burning, or painting—finalizes the work he has put into the material, marking the end of the journey.
