During my assistance for Feipel & Bechameil in 2022 we created Rebels, exhibitioned in the newly opened Zidoun-Bossuyt Gallery in Dubai.

„Working as a twosome, Feipel & Bechameil produce installations where there is a mix of illusion, imagination, instability and illogicality within gridded and controlled places in the contemporary world. As sculptors but also amateur researchers and engineers, informed by a great sensibility with regard to the theatricality of the world and its various forms of beauty, they create works within a socio-historical, aesthetic, political and technical approach. In combining their many areas of know-how in various fields – drawing, sculpture, engineering, directing and presentation, and sets -, they are producing an oeuvre that is as formally accomplished as it is powerfully engaged. The artists apprehend their environment in its most raw and purified forms with an imagined, fantasized and dreamed view of nature.“
