Description

Everyday life is full of secret knowledge that we have gathered since birth. We stay away from ladders and cats of one specific colour. We collect clovers with the right number of leaves and small coins. It’s a part of folklore that is sometimes connected with common sense, but not always. Every investment is full of ghosts that are hostile towards us. Construction Occultism is a poetic video-essay about relationships between superstitions and absurdities of reality.
