“Belgium is such a beautiful place with a rich history and I am honoured to have painted here.
My wall is inspired by one of many traditions that are in mons and Belgium called carnival de Jemappes, an wonderful festival where people “Gilles” dress up in grand costumes and take to the street to pass oranges to the public.
It is an honour to be a Gille in the carnival, I wanted to capture the passing of tradition to the youth, as it has been passed down since the 14th century!
I do think it is incredible how the people of Belgium have kept such beautiful traditions alive and thriving today!”
