Hidden talents of the artist
2019
Wooden box, banknotes, digital print, video (duration 64s, loop)
Sometimes talent has strange manifestations. One of these is in this box that was bought on the flea market in Malashevci in which an unknown person has hidden his savings. The money remained concealed for decades eluding both relatives and sellers of old goods just to appear here today.
