work


when making a sculpture the sculptor laus heezemans usually starts from an idea or a concept, such as stillness or segregation.

the characteristic of his work is its simplicity of form, no details, no decorations.

he tries  to shape the essence of what he wants to tell, which never works out perfectly.

thinking, dreaming, organizing, musing, planning, seeking security, searching for certainties, unpretentious.

it remains a quest.

laus heezemans works mainly in belgian blue stone and marble.

firm chopping and sanding a lot the stone, mostly in the open air.
