Inspiration for the exhibited compositions came from classical still lifes and work of Mondrian, Louise Bourgeois, Jan Van Tongeren and Morandi, translated to an contempory visual language.
The constant quest of Frederik Vercruysse results in perfectly measured geometric combinations in which being able to recognize the photographed objects is only of secondary importance.
A slice of cheese or a cutting board are taken out of their daily context and reduced to abstract combinations, shapes and colours.
The technical camera used to capture these still lifes reinforces the abstract result: perspective gets bent out of shape, suggesting a 2-dimensional image.
The texture of worn out objects compensates the clean look of the image.
