Philippe Druez (Belgian; born 1957) is a Flemish-Walloon artist, living in Belgium. Philippe Druez is currently working on several art projects with psycho-social and philosophical subjects as a central motif. He investigates the relationship of the individual within his environment. His ideas become uncanny and witty artworks that evoke emotions, deep reflections and question our role in the state of our universe. The artist grew up in the converging worlds of film, emerging video, electronics, mathematics and information systems. This made him one of the first multimedia designers who understood image language, IT-hardware and logical structures. In twenty years he evolved as developer and creative director from producing cutting edge technological projects towards directing media content productions. In his art he uses light, water, air and environmental elements. The installations and productions are visual, multi-layered, often interactive and multi sensory stimulating. The artist works with mixed media, film, sound, light and photography to express his ideas.
