Wijnegem, Belgium
“It all starts with collecting objects she finds on her way. In those moments she’s particularly sensitive to the intensity of these objects, to their story. These “objets trouvés” can in a harmonious composition reinforce each other by the dialogue that emerges between the materials. In that way a certain magic (magis Latin for ‘more’) appears. “- From Cathérine Rochtus website

That “magic” is what makes this artist, together with great craftmanship and taste. A scultress and jeweller, she works at her own atelier at Het Kanaal Vervoordts, an inspiring location, peopled by artists and craftsmen
