23.04.2026 – 03.05.2026

The exhibition reflects on the various anxieties and worries that collectively surround us on a daily basis, with works offering potential – or pessimistic –  solutions. The exhibition focuses on a range of themes, from the extremes of digital worlds and the distortions of online temporality to questions surrounding authorship, control and what might be responsible for this escalating sense of global unease.

What’s that?

A videotape.

I found it outside on the steps.

Who’s it from?

I don’t know.

There isn’t anything on the envelope.

Does it say anything on the tape?

No. Nothing.

Well, let’s see what’s on it.

Come on.

Must be from a real-estate agent.

Maybe.

23/04/2026 – 26/04/2026

Has artistic research become essential? What are its specific characteristics? What are its different modes? What does it imply in terms of scenography? These are some of the questions that will be addressed in a collective exhibition of two different artistic research projects and a conference on this theme.

The duo Set&Chloé has been studying the concept of quasars for several years and will soon embark on a trip to Indonesia in search of new scientific evidence of the presence of these mysterious waves.

Vernissage 02.04.2026

03.04.26 – 31.05.26

Through a journey combining art, research, and interactive devices, the exhibition offers a critical and sensitive exploration of self-representation, from the tradition of self-portraiture to contemporary digital practices. It questions the artistic, social, political, economic, and psychological dimensions of self-image: aesthetic (re)interpretation, militant uses, affirmation of identities, commercialization of image, narcissism, and the excesses of the selfie.

With Kim Farkas, Agata Ingarden, Minne Kersten, Vibeke Mascini, Mónica Mays, Chantal van Rijt

Curated by Koi Persyn

MOThS is a group exhibition curated by Koi Persyn in collaboration with Komplot, presenting the artistic practices of Kim Farkas (1988, FR), Agata Ingarden (1994, PL), Minne Kersten (1993, NL), Vibeke Mascini (1989, NL), Mónica Mays (1990, ES), and Chantal van Rijt (1984, NL). Drawing on the French mots and The Death of the Moth – two eponymous essays by Virginia Woolf and Annie Dillard – the exhibition explores the moth as a literary metaphor for both transience and transformation, embodied in the tension between life and death. The moth becomes a symbol of ecstatic self-sacrifice, reflecting human resilience and artistic creation. Through themes of mourning and desire, the artists ‘illuminate’ the metamorphosis within the cycle from caterpillar to moth. The Chapel of Boondael thus becomes a giant cocoon in which these emerging voices take shape, unfolding further through a public programme before ultimately taking flight.

MOThS is realised with the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Polish Institute Brussels.

With Natalija Gucheva & Julia Tröscher

Curated by Camille Van Meenen

23/04/2026 – 26/04/2026

Special Opening Hours During Art Brussels:
Thu–Sun: 2PM–6PM & by appointment

Komplot Brussels is proud to present rippling through, a duo exhibition with Ghent-based artist Natalija Gucheva and Antwerp-based artist Julia Tröscher. rippling through seeks the porous boundaries between our inner and outer ontology, approaching modes of imaging and imagining as active tools for accessing deeper layers of our emotional landscape. Through their video and installation practices, Gucheva and Tröscher engage in a meditative methodology, bringing about a potentially healing process by tapping into suppressed emotions and memories. Taking the intimate and the personal as a starting point, the exhibition simultaneously questions how internal messages resonate within a wider collective consciousness.

Fueling the thinking-feeling process for this exhibition is the notion of autotheory, which explores the entanglement of subjectivity and criticality. Developing new works both together and in parallel, Gucheva and Tröscher experiment with autotheory in their own distinct yet interconnected ways.

Presenting an immersive installation with video and sensory elements at its core, the artists create a space for rippling through that invites the audience to enter into their emotional realms and experience relationality as something felt rather than explained. How can the personal and universal come together? What can sensibility reveal that language alone cannot?
