In liminal times – epidemics, wars, natural disasters – human imperfections and limitations are felt most acutely, as well as the need for the omnipotence of the infinite. holy wells and trees & other faith-healing sites by Kamilė Krasauskaitė is a spatial choreography of ritualised transactions where seekers of miracles and benevolent saints engage.

The installation explores places of power and healing, and human as well as non-human journeys. Specific conditions are hidden in the landscape of faith, a cosmic barter where the saints, like mystic merchants, negotiate the price of miracles with those who earnestly turn to them. The work was conceived for 𝒹𝒾𝓈𝓂𝒶𝓃𝓉𝓁𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒹𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓂𝓈, 𝒹𝒾𝓈𝓇𝓊𝓅𝓉𝑒𝒹 𝓈𝑒𝒶𝓂𝓈, the final show of the 11th edition of Rupert’s Alternative Education Programme.
