A new gallery outside Brussels gives a sculptural furniture practice the room it needs, where each piece reads as object and argument at once.
The space is intentionally bare, a white box scaled to let large works breathe. Cast metal and carved stone forms sit on a polished concrete floor, their shadows part of the composition.
The furniture refuses easy categories. A bench could be a sculpture; a table edges toward monument. Placed sparingly, each work commands a clear zone of floor and a long sightline.

What the gallery offers is time. Visitors move slowly between pieces, and the absence of clutter forces a kind of attention that a showroom rarely allows.
