"A picture is worth a thousand words"

"Een beeld zegt meer dan duizend woorden"

"一幅画值千言万语"

is an English language adage meaning that complex and sometimes multiple ideas can be conveyed by a single "still image", which expresses its meaning or essence more effectively than a mere verbal description. Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen first said: "a thousand words leave not the same deep impression as does a single deed." After his death in 1906 this quote was plagiarized and para-phrased into what we know now.
What concerns this website, this means that the focus will be more on visuals and less on words.

Photography

Antwerpen

Photography is the art of creating durable images by recording light, either electronically by means of an image sensor, or chemically by means of a light-sensitive material such as photographic film. Many fields of science, manufacturing and business use photography for research, product development and product promotion, amongst others. It is also more directly used for art, film and video production, recreational purposes, hobby, and mass communication.

Artificial intelligence (AI) image generation is one of the most dramatic developments the creative fields have seen for some time, and 2022 was the year that it truly exploded. In a space of a few months, a new technology seemed to appear out of nowhere and evolve at lightning speed, allowing anyone to create an image of practically anything they want merely by typing a description.

Streetart has transformed the urban landscape into a vibrant tapestry of expression and dialogue. Once considered a form of vandalism, it has evolved into a legitimate and powerful art form, resonating deeply with culture and identity. Graffiti, the early precursor to streetart, etched its marks on city walls as an act of visibility, a claim to existence in a rapidly changing urban reality. These visual declarations ranged from personal taggings to elaborate pieces, setting the stage for an urban art revolution.
The essence of street art lies in its ability to converse with the public without the barriers of traditional art venues. It invites passersby to pause and reflect, engaging with themes of social commentary and giving a voice to the voiceless. This art is often temporary, weathering over time or being covered by new layers of paint, adding to its transient beauty and immediacy.
