Tinka Pittoors
Born in 1977, Tinka Pittoors is a Belgian artist, living and working in Antwerp.
She creates and elaborates colourful structures epoxy and ceramics, often mixed with everyday objects. She has shown in MUKHA Antwerp, SMAK Gent, MMuseum Leuven, Museum aan Zee Den Haag, BAM Mons, Palais d’Iéna, Mol Kiest Kunst, CBK Zeeland, Sidney Biennial,… Tinka Pittoors’ artworks often link the evident joy and playfulness of colours and objects to a subtle underlying violence. One thinks of the disturbing universe of Alice in Wonderland, for the atmosphere, while Niki de Saint Phalle is an interesting reference for these surprising colourful sculptures, with a naïve touch although conveying a deep sensitivity to the main issues of our time.
