Creative agency ILA launches online gallery in support of young people's mental health

 

International photo production company and talent agency ILA, with offices in Antwerp, Amsterdam and Paris, launches Impressions by ILA through the ILA Foundation, a new online gallery featuring a curated selection of limited-edition fine art prints by both emerging and established photographers. Prints by Jef Boes, Martina Björn, Bob Jeusette, Frederik Vercruysse, Lennert Madou, Oriane Verstraeten and Serge Leblon, among others, will be available for purchase. Through the initiative, ILA supports TEJO, an organisation providing free and anonymous therapeutic support to young people. The initiative will be officially launched on Thursday, 3 December 2026, at NOON Gallery in Antwerp.

ILA represents photographers and filmmakers and produces campaigns and editorials for international brands across advertising, fashion, design and lifestyle. With the establishment of the ILA Foundation, the agency is expanding its role, drawing on its creative network and production expertise to develop projects with a positive social impact.

Impressions by ILA brings together a selection of photographic works by talents represented by ILA in a dedicated online gallery. The collection features limited-edition fine art prints, offering art lovers the opportunity to acquire a distinctive photographic work, whether for themselves or as a gift, while contributing to a good cause.

"As an agency, we work with powerful images and compelling stories every day. Through the ILA Foundation, we want to harness that same creative force where it can make a difference. This gallery demonstrates that creativity is not only about aesthetics, but can also make a tangible contribution to care and wellbeing." ​
​— Lies Muys, Founder of ILA

A key principle behind Impressions by ILA is that all participating photographers are treated equally. Print prices are determined solely by size, rather than by the photographer's experience or reputation. This ensures that young, emerging talents and established names receive equal recognition and visibility. The choice of artwork is therefore guided entirely by the buyer's personal preference and the strength of the image itself.

Sustainability is also an important consideration. All works are produced in limited editions and exclusively made to order, avoiding unnecessary stock and minimising material waste. Each work is carefully selected and produced to the highest quality standards.


Buy Art. Do Good.

Through Impressions by ILA, the ILA Foundation supports TEJO (Therapeuten voor Jongeren), an organisation offering free, anonymous and accessible therapeutic support to young people aged 10 to 20.

Through a network of volunteer professional therapists, TEJO creates safe spaces where young people can seek help with their questions, concerns and difficulties, without financial barriers or the need for a referral. The organisation aims to provide young people with the support they need as quickly as possible.

At a time when young people are facing increasing mental health pressures and access to psychological support is not always straightforward, ILA aims to make a tangible contribution through this initiative. Every purchase from the collection supports TEJO's work and helps the organisation keep its services accessible to young people who need them.

The collaboration also closely reflects ILA's DNA, where mentoring and supporting young creative talent has always been a central focus. Through TEJO, this commitment to the younger generation extends beyond fostering artistic development to supporting their mental wellbeing.


Launch event at NOON Gallery in Antwerp

On Thursday, 3 December 2026, Impressions by ILA will be officially unveiled during an opening event at NOON Gallery, located on Vlaamsekaai in Antwerp.

All photographic works from the collection will be presented during the evening, bringing together photographers, art lovers and friends of ILA to celebrate the launch and raise awareness of TEJO's work.

In addition to the fine art prints available through the online collection, a special selection of posters will also be offered for sale exclusively during the opening event.
