The collective BURP are Kris De Smedt and Erik Vernieuwe, partners in life and in art. Their medium is mainly but not limited to photography. Always searching for beauty in the banal they create their own concepts and imagery layered with positive emotions evoked by any material that crosses their path. Be it food, flowers, ceramics or fabrics just to name a few they build and photograph sets that make you wonder what is beneath the surface. Nothing is off limits when it comes to their visual approach, but they always leave the interpretation up to the viewer to emphasise the personal approach of the work. Based in Antwerp, Belgium.
