About the work of Jonas Vansteenkiste

Artist Jonas Vansteenkiste's work is defined by spaces.
He uses different media, such as installations, video, sculpture, photographs and drawings.
He refers to and uses - both in a physical and psychological way - architectural elements.

He builds spaces or creates situations that are best defined as "mental spaces".
Mental spaces bear a resemblance to "Denkraum", a concept mostly found in philosophy and architecture. "Denkraum" can be seen as building walls,
not only in but also of the chaos of one's own perceptions,
emotions and thoughts in order to express these experiences and feelings in a clear way.

With this in mind, Jonas defines and creates his works.
These works start from a personal experience where the anecdotal
is moved to the background where it is further purified into a "basso continuo" on which to build. He approaches the medium of "installation" as a reference and experience. Thus, he places the viewer in an active role: he invites him to step into the work and situate himself in it - both mentally and physically.

The artist also leaves room for the spectator to add his own personal experiences to these installations, which are not only the "relevant" place for the artist, but also for the spectator.
