Biography

We know nothing of the life of Victor Waedemon prior to his stay in the neuropsychiatric unit in Brussels, where he is interned from 1936 until his death in 1945. Suffering from senile dementia, he experiences euphoric and delirious phases. His abstract and decorative compositions are carried out in lead and coloring pencils.
