art works seeking walls

at the time of this posting sitting in the studio is an abundance of small works.....pieces that have been framed over the past 2 years for various exhibitions in and around belgium.

if you have an exhibition you might need artwork for

or

a business that shows artwork in it's space ( ie. a cafe or restaurant)

or

a business that shows and sells art works in it's setting and takes a commission on sales

and

you are in belgium

then please feel free to contact for a list of what is available.

the art works would rather be somewhere people can see them instead of living in packing materials.....

thank you ,

the art works.
