Sabine Maes Art

Sabine is an abstract artist from Belgium (1964). She tries to let her work speak to those who like modern minimalist design. Her life as an artist began long before she actually started painting. As an autodidact she started out creating her first piece of an art in 2002. She is mostly inspired by nature, with all its different whims, colours and surfaces. By painting layer after layer; she generates a balanced and unflustered composition. While her paintings might be quite untamed, the shades she uses are often subtle yet charismatic. If she had to choose one word to describe her art, she would have to say ‘wabi sabi’; a Japanese term for “imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete”. The pieces she creates are mainly divided into two collections; the ‘Natural Collection’ and the ‘Colour Collection’. The Natural collection is an assembly of monochromatic, perfect imperfect pieces with hues and textures that are close to nature. The ‘Colour Collection’ contains stronger tints. This collection is a mix of refined pieces, as well as pieces that express bolder statements because of the use of intense streaks of colourful paint. Sabine also creates handwoven sheepskin rugs and handelaren wall art. If you would like to know more about her work, her inspiration or a specific piece of work. Please get in touch. She’d love to tell you more about the process of crafting her art and give you an insight in who she is and how her pieces take shape. You reach Sabine on s.maes.art@gmail.com
