Anneke Lauwaert's work is usually built around one idea and in situ. The themes cross universal and intimate roads and are linked with the actuality. As an artist, Lauwaert uses the figurative as well as the abstract visual language. This varies depending on the research associated with the space where the work will take place. What drives her in art is an absolute passion for diversity of materials and the possibilities they offer. The artist investigates up to (or beyond) the borders their potential and perform the actions that make the idea performable. She examines the more traditional materials such as bronze, plaster, clay, cement, wood, but also the more unusual ones such as rubber, neoprene, paper, aluminum. Video is also adressed as a medium that introduces moves to sculpture who is static by nature.
