Ged Proost (1999, Turnhout, Belgium) is a visual artist working primarily with sculpture, installation, and assemblage. His practice revolves around transforming everyday objects by integrating them into his own visual language, characterized by abstract portraits, figures, and spontaneous compositions.

​

In 2022, Proost obtained his Master’s degree in Visual Arts, specializing in sculpture. Since then, he has continued to develop his sculptural practice, exploring the possibilities of existing objects, forms, and materials.

​

“Every object holds an aesthetic value that we often overlook simply because we are so familiar with it. It is the artist’s task to guide the viewer toward a new perception of our daily experiences.”

​

Alongside everyday objects, Proost draws inspiration from abstract art, tribal art, and diverse cultural forms of expression. His work explores the interplay between different forms, visual languages, and styles, searching for ways in which they can coexist, merge, and generate new meanings.

​

Which forms have already been defined? Where can something be added to create a new perception without altering the essence of what is already there? These questions form a recurring thread throughout Proost’s practice, driving an ongoing exploration of how familiar objects and forms can be seen, interpreted, and experienced anew.
