Ief Spincemaille creates Sculptural Actions—interactive objects designed to be worn, touched, or manipulated. These works often generate temporary social spaces, inviting participants into shared, physical experiences.

His practice merges works about light, perception and the immaterial with everyday life, weaving together wonder and poetry with a socially and politically engaged discourse. Collaborating with diverse contexts—bicycle factories, prisons, abbeys, and more— his projects not only explore the nature of light and the immaterial but also question the exclusivity of the art world itself.

Through his work, Spincemaille highlights the power of ambiguity, uncertainty, and collective participation, turning the artistic process into a platform for transformative aesthetic experience.

His atelier is based in Leuven (Ateliers Minnoye) and Brussels (Objects with Narratives – OWN Ateliers). 

In 2010, Kurt D'Haeseleer and Spincemaille founded Werktank, an organization dedicated to new and old media art.  www.werktank.org
