Bring James Ensor to life
The Crystal Ship brings James Ensor to life in Ostend. The artist speaks to you via augmented reality. In celebration of the James Ensor Year, he not only speaks directly to the audience, but some of his characteristic masks are also available as Instagram filters. Case Maclaim was the perfect street artist to create a portrait of James Ensor - based on his famous 'Self-portrait with masks' from 1899, but including the white 'smiley' that often returns in Case Maclaim's portraits.
