ARTIST BIO

Belgian-Peruvian artist Luis-Manuel Lambrechts (1992) creates worlds that balance between dream and reality. His work, colorful, narrative, and poetic, emerges from a deeply intuitive urge to imagine. In his paintings and illustrations, fiction and memory merge into a whimsical universe in which humans, animals, and nature speak a shared language.

Behind the vibrant colors and playful compositions lies a subtle tension between lightness and introspection. What appears lively and naïve at first glance gradually reveals a gentle melancholy that gives his work its depth.

Raised in Belgium with Peruvian roots, Lambrechts draws from a dual cultural identity that shapes his inner vision. Folklore, mythology, and the rich visual language of South America echo throughout his work. He paints not literal memories, but emotional fragments, images suspended between rainforest and city, familiarity and mystery.

Working slowly and in layers, Lambrechts builds intimate visual worlds that reflect on migration, origin, and belonging. His figures and landscapes form quiet choreographies of emotion, where the personal meets the universal.

Following the birth of his son Raffi, themes of inheritance and home have become central to his practice. His paintings invite the viewer not only to observe, but to enter a space of reflection, one that moves between continents, memory, and imagination.
