Music is a passion, a way out of boredom and darkness. Music brings life, makes you dream of distant horizons. In 2020 Peter Hoebeke (1969) together with Sammy Van Cauteren (1974) started a series of self-portraits. The theme is Hoebeke himself, his red guitar and an amplifier. With this equipment they went to locations that determined his life: the square of Geraardsbergen, where Hoebeke was born; the station of Gent-Sint Pieters, where he used to take the train as a student; the harbor area where he worked; Caritas where he was a resident during 12 months; the bike workshop where he worked as a volunteer after his illness…

The images tell us about the past and the future, about the art of balancing between the two, searching for a balance between what has passed and what is still about to come. The closing of a chapter of life.
