Roeland Tweelinckx makes sculptures and creates interventions in existing spatial contexts. He plays with the way we perceive reality. Everyday elements in a space are transformed with minimal intervention. Sockets, electricity cables, trestles, walls, pillars, vases or skirting boards are humorously stripped of their functionality and 'bended' into visual poetry, trough a concentrated process of observation. What you see is not always what you see. His work is minimal, refined and enters into a dialogue with the space and viewer. Tweelinckx does not impose what can be seen, he gives freedom to seeing. Looking at the world around us, with a quip.
Small interventions sometimes lead to surreal situations. They bring a relief in the conceptual and a pleasure in viewing. With a subtle irony, Tweelinckx breaks through the conventions of perception – “where is the work?” – and encourages us to think about the daily reality surrounding us. An attentive look at what is and what is not.

His work is included in various institutional collections, including the Flemish community (B) and is in a large number of private collections in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Portugal and the United Kingdom.
