This painting by Jan Keteleer masterfully captures a moment of silent communion between two women at the beach, gazing into the sea's vast expanse. Clad in bathing suits that hark back to the 1950s, they stand at a seawall's balustrade, embodying the era's fashion with elegance and grace. The digital creation's meticulous mounting on a wooden panel adds a tangible warmth, inviting the observer into a bygone era. Keteleer's use of a retro aesthetic not only infuses the artwork with a sense of nostalgia for past summers but also delicately underscores the enduring friendship between the women. The painting's atmosphere is charged with an unsaid understanding and shared memories, making it a poignant homage to the timeless and comforting essence of companionship.

The symbolism in Jan Keteleer's painting goes beyond the mere depiction of two women gazing at the sea; it dives deep into the realm of human connections and the passage of time. The sea, vast and enduring, mirrors the infinite nature of their friendship, suggesting that true bonds withstand the test of time and change. The 1950s bathing suits are not just elements of fashion; they symbolize a period of innocence and simplicity, perhaps hinting at the uncomplicated nature of genuine relationships. Standing at the seawall, the women are at the boundary between solid ground and the unpredictable sea, a metaphor for life's transitions and the comfort found in companionship during such times. This artwork, rich in its narrative, invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships and the timeless nature of human connection.

From his interests in both classical art and modern / contemporary art, Belgian artist Jan Keteleer (JanKé) works with different styles. Ancient art is one of his interests, but you can also find examples of his work in pop art and impressionism. If you browse through Jan Keteleer's portfolio, you will find beautiful nature scenes, painterly images of animals or pop art-based nudes.

After years of working in commercial photography, he turned his interest to artistic black and white photography. Projects such as Speechless, Silent Dialogues and Roots with Taboo brought him fame. He was inspired by the problems of the multicultural society in Belgium, the coexistence of different national and ethnic groups, the issue of the language barrier and the lack of dialogue between the "old" (the native population) and the "new" Belgians (the immigrants).

Today he has devoted himself entirely to digital painting. Using classical techniques such as acrylic and pastel, he creates individual elements that are then digitally brought together and finished.

JanKé attaches great importance to the social significance of his works and integrates them into the context of public space (stations, airports and public transport), prompting the viewer to react and reflect. His projects have received the support of the organization Sprakeloos, which aims to use art to provoke discussion on social issues.

He has had numerous exhibitions in Belgium (in Antwerp, Bruges, Lier, Leuven and Ghent), in the U.S. (in Dallas and San Francisco) and in Poland (in Krakow).
