A precise creation of the setting comes after and is conceived in every single detail. At this point, it\u2019s the moment for the artist to take his place in the scene and pose according to the selected plot. Hocks therefore takes a series of self\u2010 time photos in black and white with his own Polaroid camera from which he chooses only one. The selected photograph is printed on a large scale, stuck to an aluminium surface and painted in oil colours which recall the Flemish masters in terms of dull shades and brush strokes.<\/p>\n<p>In the various scenes Hocks is always the leading character. His half\u2010serious, surreal, sometimes enchanted, presence allows to build \u201cinstantaneous stories\u201d which address to the public with old\u2010style gentleness and sarcasm. Mainly untitled, Hocks\u2019 artworks depict human contradictions, the impossibility of coping with small everyday dramas and randomness of failures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11795\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11795\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11795\" src=\"https:\/\/www.speakart.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Img3-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.speakart.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Img3-4.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.speakart.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Img3-4-980x709.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.speakart.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Img3-4-480x347.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11795\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teun Hocks, Untitled, analogue work &#8211; Courtesy of Teun Hocks<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>There is no judgement or solution.
