Synopsis


The Garden of Fetish analyses abstract elements that compose an artwork and artist’s own fetishes that he has to follow in order to make his work. This animated short was made in parallel with Vītols’ solo exhibition with the same title. Using symbolic language that relies on visual connotations, Vītols vitalizes and gives a mythological dimension to current issues. The Garden of Fetish had its international premiere in the competition of International Short Film Festival Oberhausen, and later other Vītols’ works have appeared in this festival.
