Michel Couturier (°1957, BE) is a Belgian multi talented artist who works and lives in Brussels. He works with video and photography and expresses himself in both drawing, painting and printing. Michel Couturier appropriates an object and transforms it into a creative item. His artistic gesture has the value of a testimony and a critical point of view. He does this in an analytical way: through transformation and metamorphose of the existing reality. In his work, Couturier addresses the social reality of the suburbs and the ethnic-cultural tensions. The result is at the same time unrecognizable and identifiable for the viewer. Michel’s Couturier’s work has been exhibited several times at home and abroad: from Buenos Aires over Berlin to Brussels.
