"As an artist, Mieke Vanmechelen has the energy to dig deep into this personal terrain with bold physicality. It is as if her work lifts a curtain and offers a glimpse at something intimate. These are not safe paintings”.
Kate McCormick, Another Place, Another Time, 2008
“More than anything, Vanmechelen's works should be interpreted as translucent compositions that form a commentary on the human experience, in all its complexity and beauty.”
Sleeping Beauty, Suzie Walshe, NY Arts Magazine, 2008
“Irish-Flemish artist, Mieke Vanmechelen also explores the materiality of paint, and reconciles its translucence with its viscosity. Reminiscent of both O’Keefe and Kandinsky, Vanmechelen’s sumptuous abstract canvases are the epitome of the concept of the show. In fact, her title piece, Translucent Threads, 2009, with its luminescent strokes of mauves, aquamarines, blacks, and ochres, references not just the land, sky, and sea, but something more ethereal and otherworldly.”
Translucent Threads, Suzie Walshe, NY Arts Magazine, 2008
"The "mystical dimension" of Vanmechelen's painting is highly personal and difficult to pinpoint, yet it constitutes a powerful non-verbal source of her art's intensity”.
Dr. Michael Casey, The Cycle of the Seasons, 2007
