Back at the MSK, the children went looking for works that corresponded to the words they had chosen. They settled on ‘Christ Carrying the Cross’, by Hieronymous Bosch, and taking it as a source of inspiration, they thought about ways to depict the idea of suffering. The results are now on show in the museum in the form of photos, which they took using cameras they built themselves in the museum workshop.
Berlinde De Bruyckere also met with the children in the chapel to talk with them about her inspiration for the work and all of the steps she took to create it.
