PROJECT        Faith Looks Better in Slow Motion
TAGS               Sculpture, exhibition, film
YEAR               2025

Faith Looks Better in Slow Motion investigates how religion and football operate as parallel systems of belief, authority and ritual. The project explores how affect, mimicry and collective investment are formalised and staged within institutional frameworks — from sacred narratives to stadia, from mythic heroes to national conflict. Anchored in the iconic Hand of God moment and its contested meaning in the wake of the Falklands/Malvinas conflict, the work reflects on how trust, territorial allegiance and myth‑making are mobilised and made legible through structured performance and cultural infrastructure.
