Boutique Vizique is the combination of Hendrik Leper and Stijn Schiffeleers, but in almost all their projects many more people are involved.

In 1994, they met at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent Belgium, where they both studied photography. Almost six years later - in the summer of 2000 - similar interests brought them back together, and resulted in a collective named Boutique Vizique.
Working mostly with video in the first few years, Hendrik and Stijn collaborated with a great number of sound artists in a wide variety of projects. As it turned out, this collaborative aspect became less important at the moment they geographically parted. Their woolgathering however survived and focussing more on their own personal ways of expression, it engendered a series of affable interactive installations.
