Veerle van Esser

Dear Verte,

Visual artist Veerle van Esser (1996) from Echt will exhibit her ceramic, androgynous figurative sculptures in the Museum of All Times and Art Space ALARM in Beugen from December 1, 2024 to February 1, 2025.
With endless patience and the element of clay, Veerle forms the earth into sculptures, working with the primal elements of earth, water, air and fire. This process leads to archaic, figurative images that enter into a spiritual, poetic and physical connection with their surroundings. The purity, craftsmanship and modest appearance of Veerle's images give an intense power to her work.
Veerle often applies lines to the skin of her sculptures, like poetic writings that seem to convey a message.
