Story of Nick
- in cooperation with Littekens vzw and Straatart
2023, Ghent, Kriekelaarstraat

This is the translation of the story of Nick in a metaphor.

The painting depicts a cracked vase of flowers, some withered, some blooming. This is a metaphor for the fact that everyone's life consists of negative and positive experiences. Nick tries to get himself and other people to focus on the positive things in life. The vase is cracked, but holding up. On the left, two flowers lie in a cross over each other, metaphor for 'drawing a cross over the past', or personally for Nick, a memory to the friends he lost. From the right side comes the light, there is the future. The flowers depicted are jasmine flowers. This flower represents hope, love, purity, positivity and strength. A nice quip is the fact that the vase of flowers is executed in the 'Flower District' of Ghent.
