A Momentous Mural!

Brussels Comic Strip Trail: a surprise
56 scenes greet your eyes
See the «Flower Garden » Rue du Char:
This corner mural is a star!

Brecht Evens*, artist – trained in Ghent
Four months on this artwork spent
His amazing pastiche, ochre-themed:
Tall trees behind high walls are seen.

Red roofs shade windows of stained glass
The cultural pot pourri is vast
Palm tree: lands remote recall
Does a tiger lurk beyond the wall?

In the urban garden - man at work
He labours in a rolled-sleeved shirt;
In 19th century grimy lives
In factories – now nature thrives!

(c) Poet in the woods 2020

* Born 1986 in Hasselt, he now lives in Paris.




Inaugurated on 23.2.2018 by the artist.
