Jacques Sonck - Twice
Product Details

Jacques Sonck is a discreet and introverted artist who portrays our society in a very genuine way. Each and every one of us could end up in front of his lens. Most banal physical appearances as well as peculiar profiles, all genders, skin colours, sizes, religions, shy individuals and fully aware ones; all at once, they all sense this moment of strength. Sonck’s portraits are the outcome of street encounters; no other appointments in any form are made.

In Twice, we are triggered to know what exactly binds the two individuals, we are secretly fascinated by identical twins, by the sometimes bizarre duos, by the mysterious relations. I’m pleased to invite you to dive into this specific world of binômes within the rich oeuvre of Jacques Sonck.


Jacques Sonck shoots classical analogue black-and-white portraits with an eye for the extraordinary. His oeuvre is a celebration of the diversity of humankind. Sonck is attracted by people who stand out from the crowd, either by an anomaly in their appearance or by their extroverted attitude. His eccentric models are unique individuals who walk the border of ‘normality’. Although his work is often compared with that of Diane Arbus, who photographed humans on the margins of society, Sonck is more interested in the physical appearance than in the social position of his subjects. Jacques Sonck is represented by Gallery Fifty One.
