Dirk Zoete

Kristof De Clercq gallery presents Splinter Blossom, the first solo exhibition of Belgian artist Dirk Zoete (b. 1969, Roeselare) in the gallery.


Dirk Zoete’s oeuvre spans a wide spectrum of media – from drawings, sculptures, and installations to printing techniques, (stop-motion) films and, since 2023, paintings on canvas and panel. However, draw­ing remains central to his practice: a daily, fundamental activity that allows for both concrete, realistic observations and free associations and personal connections between what is seen and what is experi­enced. Concentration plays a key role in this process.
