'New kid in town' Kris Henkens completes this hybrid body that produces success in domains as varied as sculpture, painting, installation, performance and design. Their series of products in glass and ceramics are known throughout the world and their sculptural installations embellish the private home of collectors, public buildings and museums. L'Anverre participated in several international scholarships and projects, and won numerous awards.
