A suspended interlude in the heart of Ixelles.
Come gently.
Distribute differently.
From humble materials (coffee grounds, handmade paper) → images that vibrate.
No decor. No effects. Just time, gestures, traces.
Caliban Ramirez works as one digs:
layers, erasures, returns.
His images do not show—they appear.
Coffee on sheet music.
Linocuts populated by animals, spirits, ancient forms.
Something between seeing and hearing.
It’s raw.
It’s slow.
It’s alive.
Caliban RAMIREZ
@Caliban RAMIREZ , born in Santiago, Chile, and now living in Belgium, creates work that blends drawing, printmaking and painting, drawing on more than twenty-five years of artistic exploration.
Trained at RHOK (Etterbeek), at the Académie de Boitsfort and under painters such as Maio Wassenberg, Roger Somville and Paul Gobert, he has developed a visual language that weaves together the mythologies of the South and the realities of the North.
His images emerge from layers, like memories settling slowly.
Today, he draws with coffee grounds on musical scores, revealing a free, almost sonic style. The gesture becomes rhythm, the mark becomes language.
On paper he makes himself, he improvises linocuts populated by dreamlike figures, ranging from animals to spirits and ancient presences. The material retains the memory; the image awakens it.
His work is a slow apparition: a world where gesture, trace and memory respond to one another.
