Daniil Zinchenko remakes Hansel and Gretel as video art.
The fairy tale is about children lost in a dark wood who find a house made of food — refuge and trap in the same place.
Reimagined now, it asks: what is the forest? Who is the witch? When everything you took for shelter turns out to be appetite, where do you go?
The story holds.
Taken seriously — as displacement and survival, not a cute update.
Daniil Zinchenko is one of the artists rehearsing a livable future with us.
