Print plate : 24,2mm x 17,2mm etching on paper Signed in pencil 34.5cm x 28.5cm (13.6” x 11.2”) // Michael Borremans' Soubirous (2017) is a limited edition etching that exemplifies his ability to blend realism with an enigmatic, almost surreal atmosphere. The monochromatic print depicts a group of figures, some in cloaked or robed attire, surrounding a ghostly, vacant silhouette at the center. The composition is both eerie and contemplative, inviting viewers to ponder the narrative or symbolism behind the scene. Borremans’ meticulous technique captures the texture and mood of the moment, creating a haunting visual that suggests a mysterious or ritualistic gathering. This work is emblematic of his exploration into the psychological depths and ambiguities of human presence.

What is body art?
Body art involves creating art directly on or with the human body. Common forms include body piercings and tattoos, but it also encompasses practices like branding, scarification, scalping, body painting, full-body tattoos, body shaping, and sub-dermal implants. Body art can also refer to a subcategory of performance art where the artist's body is central to the artwork.
