Kathleen Goegebeur

______

"De mens toont weinig maar verraad alles. In de stilte wordt niets leeg, wat onzichtbaar blijft verdwijnt niet, het nestelt zich onder de huid in lagen van tijd en herinnering. Stilte is geen afwezigheid maar een drager. Wie kijkt ziet weinig, Wie blijft herkent alles. We tonen wat we willen. We verraden wat we zijn. -- Met dit werk probeer ik de stilte te raken" Kathleen Goegebeur (Show in English)

"Man reveals little, yet betrays everything. In the silence, nothing becomes empty; what remains invisible does not vanish—it settles beneath the skin, in layers of time and memory. Silence is not an absence, but a vessel. He who merely looks sees little; he who lingers recognizes everything. We reveal what we choose to reveal. We betray what we truly are. — With this work, I attempt to touch the silence." Kathleen Goegebeur
