Peter Buggenhout

Erotism 2023

State of Discomfort


The Belgian sculptor Peter Buggenhout (b. Dendermonde, Belgium, 1963; lives and works in Ghent, Belgium) describes his hybrid creations as “abject things” that refuse to be categorized as anything, even as works of art. To make them, he uses materials that have rarely found their way into contemporary art: house dust meets garbage, tanned cow stomachs and remnants of bouncy castles appear together with acrylic glass and cast polyamide.

The edition consists of three unique works, released on the occasion of his latest monograph Erotism.
