The work of Belgian artist Hilde NIJS, entitled "Concepts of Humanism” whose practice includes series of drawings, paintings, mixed techniques, digital art, collages, sculptural ceramics, installations and sceneries, 3d ArtPen Sculptures and comprise many new works from her recent series Messengers of the Unconscious, The Riddle of Thinking Humanity, Human versus AI Machinery etc. Inspired by her own research on many subjects and books of Hannah Arendt, Freud's topographical model of the mind, Marcel Broodthaers and his Institutional Critique, Word and Image, art world role playing etc., the provocative art of Joseph Beuys and his extended definition, in which the ideas of social sculpture could potentially reshape society and politics, the Belgian philosopher Leopold Flam and many more, Nijs' art should be thought as some sort of wake up call for a new world and absolutely something to reflect on.

On her canvases, Hilde NIJS writes texts, messages and words as a result of her research study, also she selects the contemporary media, news headlines, advertisements, etc. and drops this all into a dialogue with each other, with history and with her own imagination such as a new world who comes alive on the surfaces consisting of layers deposits on each other. Inspired by Palimpsest, the preparing surfaces are defined as a manuscript that has been modified or changed but that still has traces of its original writing and as the world is constantly changing, our society as such can be viewed as a frequently altered palimpsest. All those elements are the raw materials necessary for the new and better world she wants to create for the survival of mankind. Regarding the ideological underpinning of her methodology, she describes the process of layering, printing, scribing, drawing, painting, scraping, erasing, dripping as a “necessary act of renewing,” an overflow of matter, sources, fragments, drawings, patterns and symbolism who allows the viewer to assemble their own moral view on society.
