Branches de saules et de noisetiers
À l'intérieur a été créée une installation in situ regroupant plus de 200 moulages en plâtre de visages d'habitants résultant des performances des Baptêmes de terre
qui ont eu lieu pendant une semaine en juillet 2024.
Un rituel artistique où le participant est invité à plonger son visage dans une argile douce locale
et y laisser son empreinte.
Tous les moulages de visages seront restitués le 26 septembre à tous les baptisés !

SAMSON
Willow and hazel branches
At the entrance of the medieval city of Ceske Budejovice has arrived a new Samson.
A giant mask made of local willow branches has grown at the gate of Rabenstenjska art gallery, new watchman at the bottom of the tower Rabenstein.
It still seems to keep growing and expanding on the walls of the building
and swallows any visitors who dares enter its mouth.
Inside has been created a site specific installation gathering more than 200 plaster casts of inhabitants faces resulting from the performance Earth baptisms which took place during one week in july 2024.
An artistic ritual where the participant is invited to dive its face into soft local clay and let its imprint.
All the face casts will be restitutated on 26th september to all baptized!
