William Sweetlove

(Belgian, born 1949)

William Sweetlove is a contemporary Belgian sculptor and a member of the Cracking Art Group, a collective based in Italy. Sweetlove’s work marries the cultural commentary of Dadaism with Pop Art, in a similar vein to the artist Julien Marinetti. “Art is not a message, art is art,” he has said. “But if you have a message, why not?” Sweetlove creates plastic sculptures or “clones” of animals, painted in different colors, carrying water bottles, and wearing rain boots. In adorning the animals, the artist asks viewers to consider a potential future of climate change, without drinking water or coastal cities. Born in 1949 in Ostend, Belgium, he currently resides in Koksijde, Belgium.
