It's not what it is, it's what you think it is – It's not what it is, it's what you think it is

It's not what it is... It's What you Think it is

Johan Bruninx experiments with waste materials and techniques, mixing past and future to create the unexpected. Forgotten objects are saved from their destiny to end up as waste. Old toys from the attic, a collection of rare bugs or second hand furniture are transformed to something meaningful and given back their right to longevity as a piece of art. Johan graduated in 2007 from the Design Academy in Eindhoven (NL). Interested in more? johan_bruninx@yahoo.com

Art at Pukkelpop 2025

I was honored to contribute to the Pukkelpop festival with an artwork that was showcased in the artists’ lounge alongside pieces by other creators, brought together by Wanderful Design. My work was inspired by Memphis design, featuring the recognizable bacteria motif, which I applied to a large inflatable. It was great to see that the piece was appreciated by the artists present, who joyfully posed with it. The inflatable, of course, is an object that gains a new life through this artistic intervention.
