Espace Intermédiaire is a contemporary art gallery that aims to promote the artistic production and research process as much as the final product.

Located in Sablon, a hub for art, antiques and design, the gallery hosts solo and group exhibitions in all artistic disciplines, with a focus on traditional media and craftsmanship.

As part of Brussels Design September, we are hosting artist Isabelle Bonté-Hessed2 with the exhibition ‘La Faute’, in which she explores ceramics and, through it, modelling as a space for slowness, experimentation and resistance.

Inspired by Émile Zola's novel ‘La Faute de l'abbé Mouret’, this project is the result of a long-term residency at the Atelier des Tropiques, a centre supporting ceramic creation.

For the artist, ceramics is a medium for critical, sensory and sculptural expression. The hand becomes an interface. The material becomes a medium for thought. The design of her creations explores the poetry of clay through plastic and narrative research.

Her work merges art and literature, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a garden of flourishing knowledge. The ceramics are made of porcelain and single-fired.
