> Their “Urban Shrines” are the main pieces in their work, and are inspired by the little chapels of devotion which once were to be found along the streets in the Flemish country side / They started with the pieces when Sztuka Fabryka noticed that the community of small farmers from their youth, became replaced by glossy villas and that its traditions and culture of devotion slowly disappeared / Soon they developed a fascination for rural places and introduced traditional, regionalist, folkloristic and even religious themes and designs in their work //
