Everything was drawn in service of the scenography by Sabine Theunissen (Sabine Theunissen). We worked alongside her, curator Tarek Abou El Fetouh (Tarek Abou El Fetouh) and Bozar’s exhibition teams, in particular Ann Flas and Maïté Smeyers, as one craft among others in the workshop.
Thank you, Sabine, for the trust and the precision. Thank you, Tarek, for the clarity of your vision. And thank you, Ann and Maïté, for carrying it all through with such care.

William Kentridge — I am not me, the horse is not mine
Bozar, Brussels

Four decades of drawing, animation, sculpture and stage work, unfolding across ten galleries. For Bozar’s first Grand Invité, we designed the graphic layer of the exhibition: labels, wall panels, the visitor guide and the typographic layout of the children’s guide.

We’re proud to unveil the new visual identity, logo and brand strategy for the Vesalius Museum, opening in Leuven in December 2026.

Inspired by the human body, the identity is human-centred, tactile and alive. It creates a visual language that expands, contracts and breathes. Just like the museum itself. 
A breathing museum calls for a breathing identity: one that connects Andreas Vesalius’ legacy of discovery with a contemporary vision where healthcare, science and art intersect to shape new perspectives.

Echoes of Dreams — Symbolism in Brussels
Exhibition catalogue /
Published in French and Dutch, with English translations, it brings together essays on fin-de-siècle music, symbolism, and the concept of total art — alongside more than 80 works: paintings, drawings, vases, sculptures, photographs.
Part of a larger project — we designed the full visual identity, scenographic graphics, communication materials and catalogue for the exhibition.
A few copies remaining in the museum shop — don’t wait too long. The full catalogue will soon be available online in all languages on the Maison Hannon website.

Hosting an exhibition on Symbolism is far from a coincidence, as the building itself is a Gesamtkunstwerk, where every detail is imbued with meaning. This association therefore seemed perfectly suited to show the art and further emphasize its significance.

Indeed, the exhibition, which unfolds as an inner quest, fits perfectly in the intimate setting of this house, its very architecture inviting us to reconnect with the world of ideas.

For this project, designed the visual identity, scenographic graphics and signage and exhibition catalogue — a system built to serve that quiet dialogue between space and meaning.

Last weekend. Closes April 19.

A look inside the studio during the interview — a great opportunity to capture the space and the team at work. Twenty-one years in this neighbourhood, in a city that never stops changing — and still as connected to Brussels as ever, a city that remains for us a launchpad to Belgium and beyond.
