Stoned (2018) Malarstwo autorstwa Inke Bemelmans

Belgian contemporary artist, mainly autodidact in painting, digital drawing and graphic design.

Her background in software engineering brought her to digital drawing using Adobe Illustrator. Between 2005 and 2015 she created illustrations with graphic pen. These vector drawings are cheerful, original and poetic, with a cartoonish touch.

Since 2016 Inke paints on canvas, using acrylic. Her paintings give meaning to her way of coping with life: question your position, leave your perspective and allow another perspective. She incorporates elements from street art, graphic design, conceptual art and surrealism. 

Her art is art without perspective, or from a different perspective, with bright colors in flat shapes, semi-figurative, with clear lines. You often find a central figure from which every other element starts, which can be a stylized tree, a cartoonish foot or a symbolic arrow. Everything is connected, and once connected, everything behaves the same way. Inke likes to put you on a different track, emphasizing topics like loving trees, gender identity, cultural markers, social identity and self reflection.

At the same time she maintains a collection of paintings in a completely different, impressionistic style with nocturnal views of the city. In this collection "because the night", she allows the melancholy.

On her website inkebemelmans.be you can find a collection of her paintings, digital illustrations and poems.
