If Kim Mi-jeong, manager of Axel Vervoordt Gallery, could use just three words to describe the late Belgian artist Jef Verheyen's work, they would be "feeling with eyes".

"Verheyen's works go beyond factual descriptions of the world and transcend mere physical human experience," Kim says.

"He brings the mystical and spiritual experience to us, not by adopting new techniques or materials, but by the simple act of painting with canvas and brush. His works are very natural and organic."
