De Stadscollectie Antwerpen is a lively tribute to the artists who give colour to the city of Antwerp. From emerging talent to established names, this collection highlights local creativity but also the global influence of Antwerp’s art scene. Welcome!

Sculpture , 16 × 38 × 11 cm

The figure that lays draped on the floor directs our gaze as we enter, seemingly unravelling itself in pieces. As the viewer walks past, perspective shifts, making the sculpture stretch and reconfigure to what appears as a “readable whole”. Nadia Naveau’s imagery arches and conjugates in space. In her sculptural collages, detached elements overlap and seemingly accidentally come together until the pieces literally fall into place.
