The Day She realised She Could Fly

Standing by the harbour in Husum, a young girl watches ships glide across the water as if they were no longer bound by gravity. On her back, improvised wings made of cardboard and plastic bottles transform her into an astronaut of everyday life.

In pure Belgian surrealist style, the boundary between observation and transformation dissolves. The ship becomes more than a vessel—it becomes a silent teacher. What she sees is not departure, but possibility.

The sea is no longer an edge but a threshold. And in that quiet moment, without spectacle, she understands something essential: her dreams will come true.
