“You have to forget about what other people say... You have to forget about all these things. You have to go on and be crazy. Craziness is like heaven.”

A MIND AT LARGE
Erwin Vanmassenhove is an allround creator. He was born in 1973. Most of his dream he spent in Antwerp, Belgium.
Though always a very inspired soul, he was especially touched by 3 major events in his life:
1. a very specific kind of Mexican mushrooms at age twenty-three
2. seeing someone dying on the streets of Mumbai, India whilst people were walking by as if nothing happened after all (1999)
3. a near death experience also at age 26 in Kerala (Amma's ashram)
Therefore all of his art has a spiritual ground and a social motivation. He strongly believes altruism is the greatest form of egocentrism, every (wo)man has the potential of a genius, everyone is an artist and poetry is all around through....
TRUTH, SIMPLICITY & LOVE.
