For several decades, Jean Claude Wouters has been developing a body of work that straddles photography, film, and painting.
Initially trained in dance and performance before turning to experimental film, he has built an artistic practice centered on the body, light, and memory.
His images emerge from analog processes, transformations of photographic material, film archives, pictorial gestures, and experiments with the gaze.
Portraits, landscapes, fragments, figures, and traces appear as fragile, suspended presences.
His work seeks less to represent the world than to reveal what remains when appearances dissolve.
Between still and moving images, analog photography, Super 8, painting, body, and voice, Jean Claude Wouters develops a body of work permeated by time, disappearance, and the persistence of life.
In May 2026, HOPPER&FUCHS released “To Disappear With a Trace – Une vie d’artiste“, a book published under the name Johannes Wouters.
