“And now, we have no option. We can’t say ‘maybe’ ‘it’s possible’ ‘it looks very probable…’ No way! We have to say this is what the Bible teaches! This is fact! May 21,2011 is the day of Rapture, it is the day that Judgement Day begins…”
-Harold Camping

“This we can be sure that the whole world, with the exception of those who are presently saved (the elect), are under the judgement of God, will be annihilated together with the whole physical world on October 21, 2011, on the last day of the present five months period.”
-Harold Camping

James Bouché (b. 1990) is a sculptor and printmaker living and working in Brooklyn, New York. He graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2012 with a BFA in Printmaking and Book Arts. Recent exhibitions include Low Rites (Dudd Haus, Philadelphia) Sue God for Her Wild Strawberries (Pretty Gritty, San Francisco), Exquisite Corpse (Frederick’s & Mae, New York), Intimacy & Isolation (Chainmail, Brooklyn), and The World Will End on January 26th, 2023 (St John’s University, Queens).

Bouché’s work explores overlaps in parapsychology, doomsday cults, and new age spiritual communities. Combining hand printmaking techniques and digital machining, his sculptures and wall works become artifacts of a larger mysterious narrative. Pamphlets left behind by accident or for recruitment, ceremonial tools intentionally placed, a room emptied mid ritual.
