Tim Van Laere Gallery presents Frames, Muller Van Severen's first solo exhibition at the gallery. Over the past 15 years, Muller Van Severen has developed a synergistic body of work that continually explores the boundaries between sculpture and functional object. This exhibition is the first time they present a series of works that are all unique. The exhibition Frames can be seen as a total installation, an all-encompassing universe of form, color, light, reflection and transparency. More than 30 works are brought together in the monumental space of Tim Van Laere Gallery, in which the artist duo searches for the most essential sculptural impact through minimal intervention. For Frames, Muller Van Severen always starts from a single plate, from which openings and depths arise through cutting and folding that not only provide space for functions, but also bridge the gap between reality and imagination. From the flat surface of a plate, a sculpture emerges that moves between abstraction and figuration. With Frames, Muller Van Severen creates a fictional world of images, in which alternative intrinsic meanings and possibilities are expressed, balancing between realism and surrealism. 0 g.

Softcover, 160pp., 20x26.5cm., English text. **ALS NIEUW. ISBN 9789460581335. What began as a one-off project - designing pure and at the same time poetic furniture together - became a success story for Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen. Now there is the book, divided into three chapters: 1.Introduction to the artistic work of Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen - she is a photographer and he is a visual artist - in which, in addition to the quality of each individual, the similarities stand out; 2.Process, about the creative process behind their furniture, with many sketches and photos from their workshop; 3.Objects; with many images of their work in the context of gallery Valerie Traan, which is at the basis of the Muller Van Severen project. ?With texts including interviews with the designers, by design journalist Chris Meplon and London curator and critic Max Fraser. Muller Van Severen is the joint design project of photographer Fien Muller and visual artist Hannes Van Severen, following a commission from gallery Valerie Traan. Their work is on the thin line between art and design: they choose functional furniture with pared-down shapes and contours, but the objects have something fragile and frivolous at the same time. 0 g.
