He often collaborates with visual artists, integrating his music with immersive visual experiences.

Sint Jacobskerk (St. James’ Church) is a significant landmark in Bruges, dating back to the 13th century though substantially rebuilt in the 19th century following a collapse. Originally a parish church dedicated to St. James the Apostle, it showcases a blend of architectural styles including Neo-Gothic features resulting from its reconstruction led by architect J.B. Bethune. The church is notable for its high spire – one of the tallest in Belgium – and its interior contains works by prominent local artists. It currently functions primarily as a concert and exhibition space, renowned for its acoustics which make it a popular venue for musical performances, particularly those suited to its resonant atmosphere. The building's history reflects Bruges’ evolving religious and cultural landscape over several centuries.
