I paint real landscapes as well as imaginary ones. Though it’s still my intention to end up in pure abstraction.

Thierry De Cordier (b. 1954 Belgium) is a Belgian contemporary artist and philosopher known for his deeply introspective and melancholic works that span painting, sculpture, drawing, and writing. De Cordier's art often explores themes of existence, solitude, and the sublime, reflecting his philosophical inquiries into the human condition and the natural world. His paintings are characterized by dark, muted tones and vast, brooding landscapes that evoke a sense of isolation and introspection. De Cordier's work is deeply rooted in a personal, almost monastic approach to art-making, where the process itself becomes a form of meditation. His exploration of the tension between nature and culture, as well as his profound engagement with existential themes, has made him a significant figure in contemporary European art. (Artist website)
