In case you've already visited the exhibition, Koksijde bouwt met LEGO® steentjes or Bricks @ Terhills, then you might have seen this artwork passing by. But have you ever wondered how this masterpiece came to life?
In search of inspiration
This artwork of a couple kissing on the seaside is by Dirk Denoyelle and Amazings. Whenever Dirk Denoyelle goes on a holiday or when he's traveling for work, he always brings his camera along. Even when he's far from home he'll be looking for things that he can later convert or process into a new piece. You might even say that Dirk always leaves his footprints behind somewhere.
A spontaneous moment of art
A few years ago, Dirk was at the seaside with his family. They went to buy ice cream and witnessed a spectacular sunset. Dirk's daughters secretly took a picture of a passionate couple. Dirk and his wife immediately claimed that photo, because Dirk saw a new LEGO® bricks creation in front of his eyes coming to life. And the outcome is worth the view. To this day, the names of the couple remain unknown.. until they don't. Because we'd like to give you an exclusive scoop that the couple displayed was actually none other than Dirk Denoyelle and his beloved wife. Didn't suspect that, right?
