About SABINE DELAHAUT
The works of Sabine DELAHAUT restore and enhance collective memory with the aim of fostering a sense of belonging to a living community. They prompt the viewer to reflect on the evolution of a society that increasingly leads the individual to isolation, to an inability to communicate with peers, the environment, or oneself.By creating a universal database intended to be timeless, she offers everyone the opportunity to merge their personal legend into a common foundation.Her creations come to life through the accumulation of hybrid images taken from the street, current events, or our past, crafting a graphic universe with contrasting surrealist accents. The staging of the space in which her narratives unfold is of great importance.The artist, who insists that technique should not overshadow the message, delights in deliberately creating a fusion/confusion between media, blurring the boundaries between engraving and drawing.The multiple readings and interpretations her works allow facilitate a triangular interaction between the work, the viewer, and the artist, who is enriched by these exchanges.
