Installation view of Nils Verkaeren’s exhibition Blooming Desert at Cultuurcentrum Ter Dilft, Bornem (27 September – 30 November 2025). The works, created on site at the Gloriëttehoeve in Weert, merge paint with elements of the land itself. Their placement in space emphasizes slowness, materiality, and the paradox of bloom and desert at the core of Verkaeren’s practice.
