With A Spirit in Painting, Antwerp-based artist Tom Poelmans reveals the reverse sides of a wide selection of works spanning the past fifteen years, exhibited in the side gallery at KIOSK.

These unseen backs often bear titles, dates, sketches, material traces, and other marks: silent witnesses to the process and the life of the studio.
