Knowing that this Art Residency was going to end in a solo exhibition with the work I made here, I had to change tack.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-107286\" src=\"https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-420x420.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-420x420.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482-1920x1920.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.anv.be\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_0482.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>The Genk landscape<\/h4>\n<p>So what other bow has that become? Well, the Genk landscape, loved by landscape painters in the late 19th century, just because it has been so changed by the coal mines, is now much loved by me. Before I was allowed to paint on the unloading floor in Beringen in 2018, I regularly went to the Genk slag heaps to walk, draw and paint. With watercolours. Nothing to exhibit, just, for relaxation.<br \/>\nThe terrils have not only become beautiful nature, they are also a silent witness to what humans are capable of when they work together.<\/p>\n<p>But did I just read watercolour paint? Indeed. And can you make that from coal? And then also goes on canvas? And does that also take you a month? And did you actually find coal from Zwartberg? Well, the answer to all those questions, you will get at Le Charbonnage Art Residencies, on Sunday 23 June, from 3pm :-D Exciting, isn&#8217;t it? I think so too. So I&#8217;m going to continue working for a while. Time is really short now :-D<br \/>\nSee you soon!<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nVernissage Sunday 23 June from 3pm to 6pm<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Marcel Habetslaan 27, 3600 Genk<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lecharbonnage.com\" data-emb-href-display=\"www.lecharbonnage.com\" data-emb-iscopy=\"true\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.lecharbonnage.com\">https:\/\/www.lecharbonnage.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People can do a lot when they work together.
