Jeroen Erosie: Detour Detour

Striking buildings, shapes and details he captures along the way form the starting point for new murals in the store window. Observations from the city translate into intuitive line work that gradually develops on site into an ever-changing composition of lines, planes and colour. From the week of 16 March onwards, Erosie will work on the piece live at several moments. The presentation is on view until 31 May.

The City as a Point of Departure

During his cycling tours, Erosie records elements from the public space. Through his sketchbooks, these impressions evolve into works on canvas, sculptures, prints, murals and collages. His works capture a suspended moment within restless dynamics: shapes, lines, colours and textures shift and reconfigure in continuous movement. In this way, he builds his own visual alphabet — where writing becomes drawing and drawing becomes writing.

About Jeroen Erosie

Jeroen Erosie (Nispen, 1976) began leaving his work in the streets in the 1990s. With a background in illustration and typography, he developed into an independent visual artist. As a member of the legendary SOL crew from Eindhoven, he helped introduce a shift around the turn of the millennium: instead of working with spray cans, he used latex wall paint and rollers — a choice that resulted in a style that remains distinctive to this day.
