Ben Peeters is a Belgian artist based in Hasselt.
His artistic journey began with the vibrant world of graffiti—where the freedom of color and expression first sparked his fascination with visual storytelling. He later pursued a graphic design course with a focus on DTP work, refining his skills in composition, balance, and visual impact. Over time, his creative practice expanded to include painting, murals, sculpture, and gallery exhibitions in Belgium and beyond.

Ben’s work is a vibrant escape into whimsical surrealism, where childlike wonder meets fantastical landscapes. Drawing from the simplicity and curiosity of childhood, his paintings often feature surreal hybrid creatures and dreamlike settings that blur the line between fiction and memory. These works pulse with nostalgia—playful yet mysterious—offering viewers a gentle departure from the everyday.
Heavily inspired by nature, Ben distills landscapes and organic forms into colorful, emotionally charged compositions. Through a refined, minimalist lens, he simplifies the world into its essential elements—leaving room for personal interpretation and quiet reflection.
Whether depicting a strange creature in a serene mountain valley or a wide-eyed figure lost in an enchanted forest, Ben’s art invites us into a realm of imagination, where reality bends and the inner child is free to roam. His sculptural works bring this dreamlike universe into physical space, giving shape and texture to the characters that populate his creative world.
