Who is Colensky

Since my early years, I've been triggered by the freehand graphic effect. By documenting my actions through visual material, frequent sketches and a mix with the clear line, I try to take the viewer on a journey that usually involves movement. I often tend to write an incomplete story. A kind of double game of revealing and covering. I live and work in Antwerp (Belgium).
