North West Walls

Permanent art at the Festivalpark. The North West Walls have been a striking feature of the Festivalpark in Werchter (Belgium) since 2014.

Rock Werchter has shown that art has its place at a music festival and that it works. North West Walls has lent the festival fabulous artistic allure. As art projects go, this is a highly ambitious one. North West Walls is a mark on the landscape that can be admired long after the festival period has ended. It is a permanent installation. But then again it is not. Because it looks different every

year. Under the curatorship of Arne Quinze, the North West Walls are brought to life by a new set of street artists every year. Arne Quinze has invited six massive talents for North West Walls 2017: Hoxxoh (USA), Phlegm (UK), Astro (FR), Telmo Miel (NL), Jarus (CAN) and Smates (BE).

(France) is a self-taught visual artist, from the graffiti movement. His work revolves around the soap bubble, as well as its transparency, which he has been exploring for fifteen years.

Iota is a Belgian artist living in Brussels. Her current work was inspired by paintings of classical figures and art nouveau. She works on the representation of the human soul in all its forms. By mixing bodies, textures and materials, she transports us to a world where the unconscious merges with reality and models it to infinity. Her murals are mysterious, and it seems as if we are diving into one of her dreams.
