HUP 02

The HUP jury, consisting of Magali Elali, Jonas Nachtergaele & Ellen Janssens, received 294 submissions to choose from. From these, they carefully selected a group of artists with diverse profiles. Their focus was on non-professional artists, recent graduates, part-time artists and people without formal art training.

HUP 02 consists of: Arno Camps, Cootje Velenturf, Elias Peeters, Ellen Claes, Geert Thijs, Houda Ben Azzouz, Isabelle Reynders, Jolinde Deprez, Kaat Van Kerckhoven, Lissa De Winter, Lucrecia Wang Jaramago, Lyra Oey, Miranda Pastor, Tato Greve and Zita Coltura.
