Dimitri Vangrunderbeek

Into the Tactile Landscape

For The Image Generator, Dimitri Vangrunderbeek presents a new temporary installation: a carpet of white sand and bright yellow sulphur, meticulously layered in a geometric pattern. The motif echoes the tiled floor of his studio, traced with patience and quiet focus.
The work explores the tension between fragility and control. Each element is precisely placed, yet always on the verge of shifting. Familiar materials shed their functional roles  and take on a sculptural presence.
Not static, but unfolding in real time, the installation is activated through the acts of building, maintaining and eventually dismantling. Between construction and dismantling, a slow ritual reveals itself, one that is both delicate and forceful. The installation evokes stillness while hinting at transformation. As in a studio, nothing is fixed; everything is in flux.

rooted in everyday objects that carry faint memories. Through careful interventions, he shapes spatial gestures that feel both monumental and fragile, always with the human body as reference. Moving between visual art and spatial design, his work probes the boundary between function and poetry. He teaches mixed media and experimental design at the Faculty of Architecture, KU Leuven.
