Devriendt’s work is distinguished by a captivating blend of cinematic qualities and refined painting. His series of paintings evoke the atmosphere of a film trailer, carrying an underlying sense of drama. He employs montage techniques and visual codes drawn from modern visual culture, which influence our perception of reality. Elements such as mise-en-scène, props, and references to specific film genres—such as film noir—are central to his art. At the same time, his work is reminiscent of Flemish painting, with a particular focus on the tactile quality of the depicted subjects. This diversity lends his oeuvre a depth that invites prolonged contemplation.
