Koenraad Dedobbeleer

Through various manipulations and displacements, the artist creates ‘objects’ that seem to ques- tion their own status. While most of the sculptures display a very familiar look, none of them be- longs to our daily environment. They never are what they seem to be. Rather than being copies, the sculptures are interpretations of existing forms. A never ending shift of a reality into another.
Dedobbeleer is interested in how an object or an idea can undergoes status changes and simulta- neously exist within different realities and interpretations.
