HOLY SHIT

HOLY SHIT is an artistic exploration of the relationship between faith and the body, between devotion and exclusion, between the sacred and the everyday. The starting point is a place that stands like no other for the repressed, the intimate, the devalued: a disused toilet block. A room that once served as a place of need now becomes a temporary sacred space.
At a time when belief in God is increasingly disappearing from public life, this religion remains strangely present - in our language, in our rituals, in our longing for meaning. “Oh my God”, “holy shit” right down to our first names - we continue to speak in the footsteps of the sacred, often without realizing it. What does this mean in a society that calls itself secular but lives full of sacred remnants?
Faith and the body, devotion and exclusion, shame and community - HOLY SHIT brings the profane into conversation with the sacred, uncovering connections in the contradictory. In a place of intimacy and exclusion, a search is made for the lost God - and for the devil at the same time. What happens when the toilet becomes an altar, the retreat a chapel? A space is created here in which the unspeakable becomes visible - a place for the sacred in the everyday and the common in the repressed.
Between smells, prayers and social taboos, a field of tension is created in which the profane is not played off against the sacred, but consciously intertwined with it.
It is about the possibility that where we withdraw ourselves, perhaps something common begins.
