The “Erotic” catafalque is made of fine wood. Numerous phallic symbols present in this exhibit symbolize the triumph of life over death and set a generally optimistic tone. Especially intriguing is a group of women depicted on top of the suitcase in the lower part of the catafalque, which adds to it a certain tinge of mystique.

TUTTY-FRUTTI Catafalque

A combination of fine wood and fabrics with the gifts of Belarusian fields and gardens makes the “Tutti-Frutti” catafalque an interesting exhibit. The brilliant positioning of potato (“Temp” breed) and the carrots of “Majskaya” breed on the poles of the catafalque combine to create a life-asserting and optimistic mood, which is partially neutralized by the slightly withered radishes of “Zhuchka” breed, reminding the viewers of the frailty and inanity of our existence. However, the concluding head of cabbage and a squash contrast with the melancholy evoked by a row of radishes and strike a cord of everlasting revival.
