Lives and works in Antwerp (BE)
 
Primarily devoted to printmaking and drawing, Manon De Bruyn (°2000, Antwerp, Belgium) explores a range of themes such as attachment, childlikeness, and imagination. She translates these ideas into a diverse visual language that encompasses tattoos, wall drawings, tapestries, and publications. 
 
Through an intuitive drawing process, De Bruyn creates figures that emerge from inner movements. Their contour serves as the only point of reference, capturing a fragile sense of support and certainty. Within these lines, one may recognize a gesture, a glance, or a fleeting mood. Ambiguity sets her work apart in a panoptic age when we are constantly naming, comparing, and defining. 
 
De Bruyn studied Painting for one year before completing a master’s degree in Printmaking and Drawing at the Academy of Antwerp. Alongside her artistic practice, she teaches drawing and studio art and leads workshops in cultural centers. In turn, these pedagogical activities directly inform and enrich her creative process. Manon De Bruyn’s work has been shown at venues including FoMu and Campo & Campo. In her solo exhibition ‘Het hek is van den dam’ (MHKA Inbox, 2024), she presented a multidisciplinary approach combining printmaking, drawing, collaborative photography, and tapestry.
