Opening night ArtNomadique: Neelke Lelubre, MArHA, Holy Art , Christien Dutoit and Paul Rimaux

An evening where art wasn’t just shown, but lived

Some evenings stay with you.Not because they are perfect, but because they are real.

The ArtNomadique vernissage was one of those moments.

More than an opening, it became a meeting point between people, stories, and emotions. The space didn’t just fill with visitors, but with conversations, lingering gazes, and silences that said more than words ever could.

Words that resonate — Lies Van de Velde

This wasn’t just an exhibition.It was an experience.

The poems of Lies Van de Velde added another layer.No explanations. No analysis.Just words that settle somewhere deep, often where you don’t expect them.

You could feel people looking at the works differently.As if something had quietly opened.

A first exhibition, already powerful — Neelke Lelubre

For Neelke Lelubre, this was her first exhibition.But you wouldn’t have guessed.

There’s a calmness in her work, but also tension.As if each piece holds something back, leaving you to decide how far you want to go.

And maybe that’s exactly what art should do.

When art speaks instantly — Christien Dutoit

Sometimes, time isn’t needed.

Christien Dutoit sold two works immediately.Not because they were explained.But because they were felt.

That says everything.

A moment that lingers — Holy Art (Yannick Van Boxstael)

There are moments when everything aligns.

When the poem was performed alongside the work of Holy Art (Yannick Van Boxstael), something shifted.You could see it. You could feel it.

As if the artwork itself came alive for a brief moment.

And maybe that’s the true power of art.

Technique as a language — MarHa

With her epoxy works, MarHa brought something entirely different.

Not quick aesthetics.But a technique built over time, refined, made her own.

You look, and you know: this carries time.It carries search.It carries a journey.

Layers and symbolism — Paul Rimaux

Paul’s works don’t ask for attention.They take it.

Filled with layers, symbolism, and stories that don’t reveal themselves immediately.You have to keep looking. Again.

And each time, you discover something new.

More than a vernissage

What made this evening special wasn’t just the art.It was what happened between the artworks.

Conversations between strangers.People who stayed longer than planned.Works that wouldn’t let go.

That’s what ArtNomadique stands for.

Not just white walls.But a place where art moves, breathes, and connects.

And this is only the beginning

With more than 2400 visitors last year, ArtNomadique continues to grow.Not by becoming bigger, but by going deeper.

Through exhibitions, collaborations, and events in Ronse and beyond, we are building something that goes beyond a gallery.

A place.A movement.An evolving story.
