Sofie Muller

During the summer school last week, one of the participants (Stef Anthoni) recommended the work of a Belgian contemporary artist who makes (among other things) sculptures of children: Sofie Muller.

I took a look at her work on the WWW.

I must say, it is great art as she avoids the clichés (e.g. children as innocent, angelic creatures) and creates an uneasy, mysterious atmosphere around children and their loneliness.

This is one of her works:

She has an exhibition in Antwerp starting in September and one in Cologne, also starting in September.  Check out her website: http://www.sofiemuller.be/

Thanks Stef!
