Stephan Vanfleteren

His captivating images take you on a journey through time. The inspiring themes shed new light on the evolution of marine painting. His perspective connects with artists from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century. He explores the sea in all its moods and lighting conditions, searching for places where waves and swells reveal unpredictable wonders. Vanfleteren experiences all of this not just from the shore, but literally in the sea itself. This results in a wide range of images: stormy, glassy calm, misty, thunderous, deceptively peaceful waters, or a raging whirlpool.
