Garden of Earthly Delights

The exhibition continues the collaboration between New York-based gallery Nguyen Wahed and PRPGND, which began with the Fools exhibition by Tomasz Kulka and Leander Herzog in NYC in 2024. Both artists, along with composer Milian Mori, will present new works in Warsaw, creating a coherent and unified experience. The fusion of Herzog’s digital art with Kulka’s traditional painting and sculptural techniques will explore the madness of our times, referencing Hieronymus Bosch’s altarpiece The Garden of Earthly Delights.

The works on view were created specifically for the Warsaw edition of the exhibition and respond to contemporary social, technological, and emotional tensions. The artists craft an immersive environment in which the boundary between the real and the imagined is deliberately blurred. The viewer, immersed in a labyrinth of images and projections, is compelled to confront their fears and desires.

The exhibition’s narrative unfolds in layers – from subtle, symbolic references to medieval iconography to direct allusions to pressing global issues. Kulka and Herzog/Mori's joint work becomes a kind of commentary on a world teetering on the brink of chaos, while still searching for beauty and meaning. It is a visual meditation on the human condition in an age of informational overload and imaginative crisis.
