All the boundless and intricate details of Hieronymus Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights brought to life with motion.
A large scale visual and audio experience with lots of potential. Depending on the space, it could be a full resolution, floor to ceiling projection, an identical 1:1 frame of LED screens, or even a VR installation. The project is done, now it just needs a home. That’s where you come in.

Bosch Butt Music
An original and contemporary interpretation of the song inscribed on this poor soul’s rump in the Hell panel of the painting will be the audio accompaniment to this installation.
Bosch Butt Music
Created by composer and cellist Clarice Jensen, who graduated with a BM and MM from the Juilliard School, her work is deeply immersive, pulsing, visceral, and full of color.

She is the artistic director of ACME (the American Contemporary Music Ensemble) and has scored a variety of feature films that have premiered at Sundance and Tribeca film festivals.

Project Comparisons
SIMILARLY:
The Van Gogh Immersive Experience was a largely successful animated projection of various Van Gogh works of art, bringing in around $250 million USD.
THIS PROJECT IS DIFFERENT IN A FEW WAYS:
-- It is not another “immersive” art exhibit that costs $60 to get in, with simple animations, added elements outside the painting, and an audio accompaniment that has nothing to do with the works of art. It is not a glorified instagram pop-up to take selfies in front of.
- It is an authentic and respectful interpretation of Bosch’s work. The first and last frame of the animation is identical to the painting. All subjects are animated in a distinct and realistic way. At such a high resolution, every brush stroke will be visible in a floor to ceiling projection. A seamlessly looping experience so viewers can come and go without “showtimes”. The audio accompaniment is original and relates directly to the painting.
Artist Statement
Since I was a kid, I have been fascinated with the works of Hieronymus Bosch. His fever-dream-like creations in The Garden of Earthly Delights allows us to escape our everyday doldrums into a lush, apocalyptic world of pleasure. As our world seemingly moves towards the world Bosch illuminated and/or warned us about, there is no better time for this installation than now.
