Geert De Coninck

Geert De Coninck is a mixed media artist with a studio located in the heart of Antwerp, Belgium.

When painting, the artist uses a mix of street art techniques with markers, spray cans, acrylic, earthy matter on canvas, ... The style is variously inspired by abstract expressionist art with a recurring theme of dystopia which translates into colorful layers of transparencies, fluorescent and asemic writing. Other work and research includes street art, stencils, video art, Riso prints, collage and digital installations with projection mapping.

As the founder of Arties bv, Geert has been working with multiple brands as a professional content creator using print, web and video as his key assets. These media find their extension in his art. Thus, professional experience merges with Geert's background as a VJ (Visual Jockey) & his broad interest in street, visual and digital arts.

The loss of many paintings and drawings during a float in 2019 marks his shift towards a more experimental practice using spray paint, stencils and asemic writing on large canvases as well as a Riso duplicator to create smaller prints.
