Urgent — OneBran
We first met artist OneBran in 2022, during a road trip around Athens. There, we discovered how he developed his geometric style in abandoned buildings scattered across the Greek landscape — places that strongly reminded us of the empty factories that once shaped the city of Ghent.
He showed us the beauty of forgotten spaces. And now, years later, we’re proud to see him leave his mark here, in our own city.
R-Gent is a playful nod to the name of Ghent, with the reversed ‘R’ symbolizing how the world often feels today: upside down. The loop on the left side of the letter subtly refers to the cyclical nature of things — how everything eventually comes full circle.
This mural was made possible thanks to the Ghent Neighborhood Budget for the Dampoort district. With this project, we aimed to give the busy Kasteellaan a fresh visual boost, while creating space for wonder in the everyday.

Abstract Session — How it all began
Abstract Sessions originated from a simple but bold question: what happens when you dedicate an entire wall to abstract art? Together with a diverse group of artists from across Europe, we brought colour, energy and experimentation together in a unique creative process.
Waarom kunst in de publieke ruimte?
Kunst in de publieke ruimte is een must. Het toont wie we zijn of willen zijn als stad, gemeente of dorp. Kunst kan verbinden, verbazen, maar ook tot discussie leiden. Het stemt tot nadenken en gesprek. En is dat niet het doel?
Street art: the street belongs to everyone
Street art has long ceased to be merely "anti" or a paragon of anarchy. Today, thanks in part to this art form, the idea that public space belongs to everyone is alive.
