Benjamin Volckaerts is a Belgian visual artist.
‍
In his practice, he combines sculptural forms with functional design, positioning his work at the intersection of art and everyday objects.
‍
His work moves between abstraction and figuration, drawing on influences from diverse cultural traditions. He explores how objects carry meaning and how they can refer to function, fiction, ritual, and history.
‍
Ceramics plays a central role in his practice, approached as a material that is both craft-based and experimental. His sculptures are often built in a modular fashion, allowing them to evolve continuously and give rise to new compositions. Thus, he explores the relationship between tradition and innovation, creating a visual world where form, material, and imagination converge.
