B:K maakte deze muurschildering voor North West Walls 2025 op de festivalweide van Werchter.

Het werk is ontstaan uit een analyse van de vorm van de containers en kwam vanzelf tot stand. Het idee was om te spelen met een surrealistisch personage en het een geloofwaardige afwerking te geven met het kleurenpalet en het spel van realistische licht- en schaduweffecten. Het personage is gebaseerd op het idee van de geest van het bos uit Princess Mononoke.

B:K created this mural for North West Walls 2025 on the Werchter festival grounds.

The work originated from an analysis of the shape of the containers and came about naturally. The idea was to play with a surrealistic character and give it a credible finish with the colour palette and the play of realistic light and shadow effects. The character is based on the idea of the spirit of the forest from Princess Mononoke.

North West Walls is a stacked shipping containers installations at Rock Werchter, transformed each year into a new open‑air street‑art gallery. Since 2014, it has served as a permanent structure with ever‑changing artwork, proving that large‑scale visual art can thrive at a music festival.

Curated annually by Belgian artist Arne Quinze, the project invites six international street artists to repaint the containers, giving them a vast outdoor canvas exposed to weather, music, and thousands of visitors. The installation acts as a landmark between festivals, then is reborn each summer with new stories and styles. Over a decade, it has showcased artists from around the world, each leaving a mark on the project’s evolving identity. As it celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2025, North West Walls continues its mission: bringing art into unexpected spaces and sparking emotion in everyone who encounters it.
