Foulon & Van Verrewegen
Jo Foulon and Stoffel Van Verrewegen, childhood friends, share a love for creating remarkable objects. Jo is a visual artist who works with glass, while Stoffel is a skilled craftsman working with wood. This collaboration brings together two distinct crafts, materials, and temperaments that both reinforce and challenge each other. The objects born from this interaction are not only functional but are also infused with a poetic quality.
Contrasting temperaments
The collaboration between Foulon & Van Verrewegen is a dialogue between their contrasting approaches and temperaments. One works with meticulous precision towards a polished finish, while the other takes a more intuitive and biomorphic approach. Together, they balance experimentation with craftsmanship, creating objects that explore aesthetic and conceptual tension. Their work is a dedicated investigation into the balance between materials, forms, and the individual.
Objects Tell a Story
At DDW25, Foulon & Van Verrewegen present their first collection: three objects that serve as a testament to this creative process. These pieces articulate the essential themes of their partnership: the harmonious tension between glass and wood, precision and intuition, and the synthesis of function and poetry.
