Born in 1899, Stynen is the architect who designed the fascinating building De Zonnewijzer (The Sundial) in 1955. Since 2019, it has been home to the TICK TACK cultural centre. This six-metre-high concrete and glass duplex, located in a busy area of the city, opposite a tram stop and the Harmonie Park, is a perfect interface between artists and the public. When the sun sets, the windows light up and come to life, to become the TICK TACK CINEMA.

What better space than TICK TACK to host the work of the German painter Martin Eder (1968), and his kitsch surrealist work? The exhibition "Karmageddon", for you to discovered until the 8th of July 2023, is presented as “a visually stunning exploration of the brutality and ruthlessness of our times, where most people are constantly under the hypnosis of social media and its ‘fast dopamine’ culture”. Karmageddon features naked bodies and cats. It’s a real eye catcher that will put a smile on your face. You’ll either love it or hate it. Amongst the works presented, HYPOTHALAMOVS, a selection of "fast moving internet trash-videos… that imitates the careless doomsday scrolling one experiences on TikTok or Instagram."
