Installation is consisting of two silver-coloured toasters. If you insert a slices of toast into the toasters, burnt images will appear: portraits of the most recognazible iconic faces, saints, martyrs and cult leaders from different belief systems. The faces of Jesus, Che Guevara, Lenin, Charles Manson.
An idea came from the news in the media when somewhere, usually in some Catholic country, the face of Jesus on the bread was found. Or in some Islamic country sometimes on the slice of a cucumber the quote from Koran is formed. Kind of common miracles. The two toasters are exhibited with slices of bread, so the audience can “print” those temporary graffic art works, either to take those with them, to eat the slices of bread with portraits or to leave them to be part of the installation.
