Cosco [Louis De Cordier, Ostend °1978] can be best described as a contemporary tekton. His art work depends on the aspects of simplicity and integration, as a response on the complexity of daily life in the 21st century. His projects, installations, sculptures, NFT's, actions, photographs, drawings, architecture, movies, design, writings & publications all search to integrate themselves, into a world-view going deep into the unknown.
Cosco strives to extend our perceptions of the ordinary, and to see the beauty of the timeless presence which lies within it. To do so he didn't fear interdisciplinary cooperative projects, like an archaeological labyrinth mission in Egypt, a wild honeybee preservancy network, or the building of an underground library in the high mountains of the Sierra Nevada, Andalusia, Spain.
In 2011 Cosco relocated to the Alpujarra, to live an off-grid and more natural life, to implement the vision of a sustainable social future. To walk the talk. [online CV] / [artist e-book]
The Cosco Foundation was founded in 2009 by Louis De Cordier [Cosco] in the realization of his non-profit projects, to enable project patronages and crowdfunding. Today, the Cosco Foundation preserves the patrimonium of among thousands of books, and manages the daily coordination in the ongoing realisation of our visionary philantropic projects. Slowly weaving our humanitarian activities into the glocal social fabric, radiating our direct actions into the far distant future.☼
