ABOUT

Lander Daniels (1990) is a Belgian artist based in Mortsel/Antwerp.

 

His work moves between realism and photorealism, with a strong focus on atmosphere, emotion and the interplay of light and darkness, drawing inspiration from the Baroque tradition.

Difficult and uncomfortable aspects of life are central to his themes, rendered with technical refinement to invite viewers to slow down and reflect.

 

Alongside his artistic practice, he teaches, though his drawings allow him to reach a broader audience beyond the classroom. Working primarily with charcoal, graphite, markers and pastels, he uses drawing as a way to slow down the viewer within a fast-paced, often unconscious world.

​

Lander holds a Master’s degree in Comic Design from LUCA School of Arts Brussels. This background remains visible in the narrative structure of his work: each piece contains a carefully constructed story that the viewer is invited to continue.
