TWELVE STICKS

The video Twelve Sticks was created from the installation of the same name, which was realized for the Into the Miracles event https://www.intothemiracles.com/en/03-07-2023-stara-hora-badan-eng/.

The Twelve Sticks try to refer to the motif of the Last Supper, as well as the anxiety of the evening in the Garden of Gethsemane. The reference to the fact of death and rebirth, a fundamental transformation, is important.
