With her new work “Sanctuary of truth” Brussels based Latvian visual artist Kate Krolle continues her journey in the territory of theatre. By turning long abandoned factory into sanctuary and guiding audience through the sequence of ritual acts, Kate is looking for light in the dark depths of truth. Can feeling become a ritual practice? How to get rid of one’s identity without loosing the ability to feel? Immersed in subtle visual and sound landscape it’s a collective search for the meaning of life and death.
