In a world where everything is constantly changing, Curating The Young explores the mutation of our rapidly developing technological society and nature. Based at the Wintercircus, this exhibition presents a diverse group of artists, each telling a story from their own perspective on the contrast between nature and technology, the organic and the static, the living and the inanimante. 

The artists play with the organic qualities of materials such as clay, but also embrace the technological and the static through plastics, metals and industrial elements. While some works breathe and move, others remain static. Together, the works in the exhibition create a vision of the future in which man not only lives, but also coexists with the remnants of his own industrial world. 

Alongside these works, there is also room for reflection and interaction. Participate in creative processes that challenge you to rethink your relationship with the materials and technologies that shape our world. By fusing art and technology in novel ways, the artists hope to create a new kind of consciousness, where the natural and the artificial are no longer separate, but come together.

Complementing the exhibition, our shop offers you the chance to take home a piece of this unique world – selected works from participating artists will be available for purchase.   

Excited to dive into their wild and wonderful world? Join us at Wintercircus Ghent for our first exhibition of the year on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 November 2024.
