Video from the Austrian pavilion at the Venice Biennale:

Artist Florentina Holzinger hangs upside down inside a giant bronze bell. She swings back and forth and literally “rings” the bell with her own body.

This is part of a large-scale installation about the climate apocalypse. The bell with a person inside symbolizes a warning about the coming flood.

The Biennale officially opens on May 9, 2026, but the performance has already begun.
