New artistic installation: Origami for Life in the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert

“Origami for Life” – new artistic installation by Charles Kaisin can now be visible in the Royal Galleries of Saint Hubert. The installation will remain on display until February 2021.

Origami For Life is an initiative of the artist Charles Kaisin which aims at raising funds for Hospital Erasme in Brussels by creating an Origami art. The goal is to work together and make a common effort to help fund a COVID-19 special care unit. The “Origami for Life” exhibition has already been on display in KANAL Centre Pompidou in Brussels, as well as in the Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula.

As the author announced on his Facebook page – Lift your head and you will see thousands of birds folded by the whole population, a symbol of mutual aid which announces another installation soon…
