Belgium's Z-OUT See-Through Church by Gijs Van Vaerenbergh
/
Gijs Van Vaerenbergh is a collaboration between two young Belgian architects Pieterjan Gijs and Arnout Van Vaerenbergh. The brilliant duo recently unveiled a see-through church in the Belgian region of Haspengouw, part of the Z-OUT project which is an ambitious five-year public art project.
The church project is called ‘Reading between the Lines’ and changes perspective inside and out, depending on the location of the viewer in juxtaposition to the structure. The architects say “because the church does not fulfill its classical function, it can be read as a heritage related reflection on the present vacancy of churches in the area — and their potential artistic reuse.”
