Anne De Mol I Couple se touchant les mains

Anne De Mol is a Belgian multidisciplinaryartist whose work sensitively explores the complexity of the human experiencethrough sculpture and painting. For more than thirty years, she has developed abody of work deeply centered on the human body in motion before dedicatingherself more intensely to sculpture over the past fifteen years.

Her figures, predominantly female, embody a subtle tension between sensuality,strength, and fragility. Through bronze, plaster, and delicately constructednetworks of strings, Anne De Mol creates sculptural presences that feel bothpowerful and vulnerable. Her works appear suspended in precarious balance,oscillating between movement and contemplation.

The artist has developed a visual language in which material and emotionconstantly interact. Bronze brings density and permanence, while plaster andstrings introduce a more fragile, almost ephemeral dimension. Thisconfrontation between weight and lightness forms one of the central axes of herartistic research.

Anne De Mol’s sculptures are often placed upon elongated bases or intersectedby linear structures that extend the sculptural gesture into space. The bodiesseem caught within invisible networks, evoking the tensions, connections, andbalances that shape human relationships.

Balance remains a recurring theme throughout her work. Each figure appears tosearch for its own inner stability, reflecting a sensitive observation of thehuman condition and the emotional dynamics that inhabit individuals.

Anne De Mol studied at several prestigious artistic institutions in Brussels,including the Bischoffsheim Institute, the Beaux-Arts Academy ofWatermael-Boitsfort, the Hogere Rijksschool voor Beeldende Kunst in Etterbeek,and BENK Brussels, where she developed a rigorous and deeply personal artisticpractice.

Her work has received several distinctions, including the Public Prize forSculpture at the Corpus exhibition in 2005 and the P.W. De Muylder Public Prizefor Painting in 1994.

Born in 1949, Anne De Mol lives and works in Brussels, where she continues tocreate sculptures inhabited by the poetry of the body, movement, and balance.
