Biography
A conceptual artist, Helmut Smits looks at everyday objects as if he were discovering them every day. By having fun, he creates a dreamlike reading of the world around us. It is with a poetic finesse and a certain minimalism that he challenges and attempts to overturn habits and rationality. The transformations he brings to the public space provoke complex reflections thanks to simple ideas.
