Are you ready for Judgement Day?

Fifth-year Décor, Display, and Publicity students create an apocalyptic exhibition inspired by Bouts’ darkest works. They ponder what Judgement Day might be like for them and research the role of hope in troubled times.

As young artists, they also play with diverse materials, such as papier mâché, spray paint, charcoal, and digital techniques, and learn how to set up an exhibition.

Mijnleuven – on of Leuven’s youth organisations – recently set up camp in Villa aan de Aa. The location provides young artists with a space to work and enriches their journey through all kinds of workshops. For several weeks, the villa will be transformed into the scene of perdition. But maybe, just maybe, there’s still a flicker of hope on the horizon. Enter to find out for yourself.
