Honoré d'O lives and works in Ghent. His sculptures, videos, and installations show the components and possibilities of various scenarios, in which he allows the public an active and often creative role. His installations are informed by the underlying meanings and connections which constantly merge from reality into art and vice versa. He has had solo exhibitions at the Museum voor Hedendaagse Kunst Antwerpen (MuHKA), Antwerp (2002, 2005), the Moderna Museet, Stockholm (2000) and Galerie Jan Mot, Brussels (2002, 2003).
