Erik Roger (1967, Belgium) - Artist and Teacher in Ghent
Erik Roger lives and works near Ghent, where he also has his studio. His work and passion focus on translating three-dimensional reality into a two-dimensional representation. This process creates an abstraction beyond visible reality.
Art and Education
His fascination with human beings inspires him as a teacher. Erik teaches drawing at LUCA School of Arts' undergraduate Interior Design course, where the emphasis is on drawing interiors and objects.
A Game with Materials and Unpredictability
In his work, Erik explores unexpected combinations of materials and techniques. On the one hand, he constantly tries to fathom new techniques. On the other hand, he allows himself to be led by chance, which leads to surprising and unpredictable results. This creative and experimental process is at the heart of his work: a continuous search for new possibilities and insights.
