Born in 1994 in Antwerp, Legiers already started drawing landscapes before enrolling at the Painting Department of Antwerp’s Fine Art Academy, where he finally was able to focus solely on his artistic work. While landscapes remained a constant fixture in his practice, his way of conveying them has developed progressively to arrive at the unique approach he now swears by in both his paintings and his drawings. […] A certain vastness is suggested by radical cut-outs and close-ups, which give the impression of being focused on a detail of something present in serial abundance. Legiers masters a remarkable sense for balance and contrast, always ensuring a hint of movement in his overtly stilled, static and composed images.
