Anthony Schatteman (1989) graduated from the KASK School of Arts in Ghent after which he obtained an additional master's degree in Film Studies

and Visual Culture at the University of Antwerp.

The world of young people and their relationships with the people around them form a common thread in his work, characterised by burgeoning

sexuality. Anthony portrays universal characters that everyone can identify with, in a stylised way, with little dialogue and attention to emotions that

are difficult to express.
