Mégane Likin Belgian, b. 1994

Overview
Mégane Likin
After studying visual arts, particularly drawing and painting, at the Beaux-Arts de Liège, Mégane Likin began her artistic career in London before moving to Brussels.
 
Mégane Likin's work is defined by landscapes that emphasize absence and erasure. By inviting the viewer into an intimate experience, she prompts reflection on our connection to the past and how we reinterpret our personal history. Her creations are marked by an evocative silence, offering a unique perspective on the evolving nature of memory and identity. Her artistic practice demonstrates a continuous quest for the transformation and evolution of events, where the oldest memories are reimagined over time.
 
With her ‘Chambres intérieures’, Mégane Likin bears witness to her ceaseless quest to understand the metamorphosis of events. Do these silent landscapes reflect a snapshot in time, etched in our memory, or do they illustrate a vain hope and a tangible future? The artist sees the landscape as a neutral, receptive surface capable of capturing and reflecting the emotional nuances and evocative details of memories. Each new look adds nuance and suggests a different perspective on what has been and what is to come. Mégane Likin explores the irrevocability of every moment and emphasises the impossibility of reliving an experience. She questions how the present shapes past moments.
 
The multiplicity and ephemerality of images are central to this series. In an age of incessant cascades of changing images, the way we record and visually (re)interpret our environment is rapidly changing. Mégane Likin is confronted with how this abundance of images affects our perception of the world and our ability to appreciate it. The windows offered by digital platforms can both broaden our horizons and overwhelm us, raising questions about the transient nature of our connection with images. Let us look inward and keep looking.
