Maurits Wouters

Maurits Wouters (°1986 Turnhout, Belgium)

Filmmaker and visual artist.

He graduated as narrative filmmaker at the RITS in 2009. He then concluded a Master in Film & Theatre Studies at the University of Antwerp in 2011. From October 2013 onwards he has been doing doctoral research financed by the FWO (Fonds voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek/Fund for Scientific Research).

In spite of his training in narrative film his artistic field of action has evolved towards the plastic arts. In this he does not limit himself to film. Also photography and installations have more and more become part of his artistic path. The films of Wouters were shown, among other venues, at the International Short Film Festival in Louvain and Experimental Intermedia in New York.
