Altar

18.10.25 — 26.10.25

This colourful composition of flowers and candles, arranged as a memorial, was originally conceived as a set for a play. In Altar, the theatre set is transformed into an installation in which colourful artificial flowers enter into dialogue with a lingering absence, a farewell.

On Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 October, you can visit the installation in museum GUM as part of the festival DARK WEEKends, in combination with a free sound walk at the Zuiderbegraafplaats, one of the most historic and moving places in Ghent. This walk is free of charge.

In collaboration with Europalia España.
