Louise De Buck
Louise De Buck, based in Brussels, finds her inspiration in post-apocalyptic films from the ’80s and ’90s and in horror and mysterious movies soundtracks. This component is evident in De Buck’s works, which often depict female subjects mostly represented naked and with intriguing and mysterious looks. The female figures that Louise De Buck depicts reflect her personality and her image, almost as if they were all self-portraits that, piece by piece, reveal something of her essence.
Search for an escape is part of the psychedelic dream series, it was produced during the first confinement and reflects a desire to escape the real, again using nostalgic symbols of childhood, disappeared toys staged in a surrealist composition.

I am a lover of images and sound experiences; this curiosity has always been in me. It has shaped me into who I am from childhood to now! I continuously explore through textures in my paintings with acrylic and oils. The story I am trying to tell through my paintings has many layers; old school movies, series B movies and simple memories of happy or sad moments of my life. I am passionate about expressing my feminism and vision of injustice for women in this world in my very own way. What I enjoy the most is to paint a scene that puts women in all they’re naked glory and beauty. And express my power and feminism that way knowing that its very unconventional. The impact my friends have had in my life is the foundation of my inspiration and so vital to my well-being as an artist and human being. As well as my traveling adventures that help me grow into who I am.
