Jeannine LEJEUNE
(Belgium, 1952-)
The aesthetics of Jeannine Lejeune's work can safely be described as being Baroque. Her works are teeming with details, generous (in the image of their creator) and regularly borrow elements from the Catholic religion. Each of her creations is an emanation of her inner world as well as being an invitation to explore our own inner world. It is with this message that for long years she opened her house to visitors. Actually, we should rather call it a museum! Her house was a veritable work of art in itself. Established on the heights of Huy, it was a denunciation of our throw-away society and transformed discarded materials into a festival of colour.
