Annette De Keyser Gallery

Life begins and ends in the middle of nowhere

This exhibition invites you to explore the fragile and profound journey of existence. Through conceptual sculptures, light boxes, and video installations, I ask you to reflect on life’s beginnings and endings—on the beauty and simplicity of our being.

At the heart of the work is a message of positivity and resilience. Life has not always been kind to me, but through hardship, I’ve learned to embrace each moment with hope and a positive spirit. This exhibition is an invitation to step into the cycle of life, to feel its flow, and to become part of it — rather than stand outside and watch it pass.

The artworks displayed here are not just objects; they are invitations to transform, to reflect, and to embrace the beauty of being human. Through these pieces, I hope to inspire you to take a positive approach in your own life, even in the hardest times.

The video installation at the end of the exhibition represents my own rebirth and offers a glimpse into this journey of transformation. It is available as a limited edition, along with the rest of the artworks, inviting you to take a piece of this experience home and become a part of it.

Let this exhibition remind you that, even in the middle of nowhere, life continues to move forward. It’s an invitation to feel, to connect, and to become a better version of yourself.

Since 1993, Annette De Keyser Gallery has brought together seemingly different Belgian and foreign artists for the strength, authenticity and honesty of their work. Most important, however, is their ability to create a positive, uplifting experience. Their works are tools for transformation: they are mirrors to reach, to touch and to awaken the soul.

If you would like to visit the exhibition outside of the Antwerp Art Weekend, and ensure an undisturbed and intense experience, you can visit the gallery by appointment on weekdays. No reservations are necessary on Saturdays.
