Adelheid De Witte’s (BE, 1982) works can be seen as the continuation of the Belgian surrealistic tradition, but in a contemporary framework. The surroundings presented in her paintings can be read as visible ways through which mental constructions are represented. The reoccuring depictions of landscapes arise in a rather organic way combined with uncommon shapes and colours.
These two elements in Adelheid De Witte’s new oil paintings on linen are very much influenced by each other as she diffuses the clear distinction between both. What remains is a feeling which alternates between a cheerful and an obscure desire. Thus she plays with the paradox of illusion and reality and shows us new perspectives on reality.
Adelheid De Witte works in an old boys’ school in Ghent. De Witte previously exhibited in group exhibitions such as PASS (2016), the art route organized by Kris Martin and Jan Hoet Junior through the villages of Huise, Wannegem, Lede, and Mullem; Re-ART2 (2017), the group exhibition in Zaventem curated by Julie Senden; the Biennial of Painting (2018) in the Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens; ‘At Night, You Dance’(2019) at Barbé Urbain gallery and the group show L’Heure Bleue (2020), organized by the Antwerp galleries Sofie Van de Velde and Plus-One.
In September 2020, Adelheid De Witte will be exhibiting her first solo in Barbé Urbain gallery where she will present a dozen new paintings and several striking installations, under the title: ‘There are Fireworks at 11pm.’.
