Victor Verhelst (1997) is a Belgian visual artist. Rooted in graphic arts and the craft of textile art, Victor Verhelst’s oeuvre weaves a diverse array of mediums into his autonomous creations. His artistic journey flows seamlessly from the digital realm to the tactual of in the physical world, manifesting in unique Riso prints, voluminous tapestries, and interactive game technology. At the heart of his work lies the ongoing series ‘TRIPPY VEGAS,’ a vibrant, evolving digital cityscape where virtual architecture, human interactions, and imaginative structures merge into a new, surreal fiction.

Verhelst’s aesthetic is a dance of distortion and juxtaposition, where 2D and 3D images collide and blend, creating striking figurative compositions. Printed matter - whether digital, 3D, Riso, or textile - explores the delicate relationship between the materiality and the pre-existing digital image, breathing life into the digital depiction and infusing it with a tangible, multi-dimensional presence.
