HELLMOUTHS (2021) is an installation created for PREDELLA, a sculpture garden and movie at Kunsthal Gent, curated by Camille Bladt and Timon Bloemen. The predella is a reference to the pedestal of The mystic lamb, the famous painting by Jan van Eyck. This pedestal used to have paintings of the hell on it, however due to a failed restauration they were erased. The movie shows the Hellmouths as well as the work of Emma van den Broek that make up the sculpture garden.
PREDELLA “13:15”
PREDELLA is a movie made about the sculpture garden at Kunsthal Gent featuring the HELLMOUTHS as well as The Ladder, a sculpture from Emma van den Broeck. It shows a fairytale origin story of how the garden came to be, manifesting itself as a possibility of how Hell would have looked on the lost painting of the brother Van Eyck.
