Welcome on Board
9.05.2026 - 22.05.2026
Welcome on Board is an open invitation from a diverse crew now known as Sket soon. While every member of this group is a skateboarder, they represent a wide range of ages and skill levels. Some are professionals within the industry, others are instructors, and some are just beginning their journey on a board. They first connected through skating, using it as a foundation to share their cultures and exchange ideas across their artistic, visual, and musical practices. The exhibition Welcome on Board grew from a collective desire to blend these unique artistic worlds through a series of limited-edition, custom-designed skateboards.
The collective Sket soon will take on a ten-day residency to develop and present their creations on boards. Throughout the exhibition, they will invite participants to join in and customize their own boards, creating an open and intergenerational environment.
Espace Vanhomwegen is excited to welcome the Brussels based collective Sket soon, as they share the same values and vision. This collaboration reflects a mutual commitment to a community-based project that bring people together through creativity and shared passion. By hosting this residency, this collaboration belies in breaking down the boundaries between professional validation and the raw practice of art itself by questioning its purpose in society. Because, in the end, skate culture belongs to everyone. Long live skate culture!
