Florence Coenraets is a Belgian visual artist who explores the intimate relationships between people, objects and the environment, using feathers as her primary medium. Her first solo exhibition at Spazio Nobile is an invitation to a sensory journey through new creations made especially for the gallery.
This body of work includes feather paintings and aerial compositions with evocative titles: “Atmosphères”, “Ciels”, “Cosmos”, “Haïkus” and “Immersions”. Born in Eupen, Belgium, she studied at the Institut d’Architecture Victor Horta and received her master’s degree from the Sint Lukas School of Arts, where she began experimenting with hybrid headpieces. Her fascination with feathers began during her training as a milliner, and she later honed her skills in feather work at the Académie des métiers d’art in Paris.
The physical and emotional qualities of feathers have led her to create various artistic projects.
Her work has been shown internationally in exhibitions such as A World of Feathers at the Volkenkunde Museum in Leiden and at the Etnografiska Museet in Stockholm and in Belgium, at TAMAT, Musée de la Tapisserie and the Centrale for Contemporary Art, Brussels.
Since 2022 she has been represented by Spazio Nobile and has participated in numerous local and international fairs and group exhibitions such as PAD London, PAD Paris and Nomad St. Moritz.
By combining raw materials with traditional techniques, Florence Coenraets creates unique works of art that combine the sacred and the contemporary. She lives and works in Brussels.
