Gert Motmans' evokes a new illusive world, where people can rediscover past experiences, or can be reminded of places once visited. All in a language that seems quiet, whispered, reflecting Gert’s soft spoken nature.
The landscapes are undefined, witnessing solitude and therefor can be perceived as disorienting.
“I want to create a kind of physical awareness, when looking at the landscapes.
Landscapes always make me feel safe. I grew up in nature, surrounded by a caring family. Outside of this soothing cocoon, the world seemed very harsh at times. Often depending on myself, I created my own little imaginary world.”
