Making Nature II

This exhibition at Galerie Fontana Brussels features the work of Claudy Jongstra, an artist renowned for her textile artworks and architectural installations. Her practice unites artistry with ecological stewardship, presenting a vision of artist-activism.

In "Awaken Love," Jongstra explores ecological consciousness, with each piece inviting viewers to reconnect with the natural world and consider the protection of our ecosystem. Her works are materially and conceptually embedded with the fortitude and resilience of biotic communities. Jongstra operates from a self-sufficient, sustainable, no-waste studio, contributing to local biodiversity and soil enrichment. The exhibition highlights her commitment to safeguarding narratives through her handcrafted artworks, made with regenerative wool and biodynamic plant-based colours.
