alain biltereyst [b]) is mostly known for his small-scale paintings based on the visual codes of public space—signage, logos, architectural motifs

working with basic colors and simple forms, biltereyst finds beauty in what we usually pass by : the everyday made extraordinary

what is often dismissed as low culture is here elevated to visual poetry

there is a tension at play — between stripped-down modernist formalism and the messy vibrancy of popular culture

his interest in how the ideals of modernism have penetrated everyday life — through design and mass production — is paired with a painterly approach that is careful, measured, and profound . his works exist at a crossroads : abstract + concrete, street + studio
