Roman Košťál - Ghostie II

Here, Košťál artistically explores the superstition that passing under a ladder invites misfortune or disaster. We observe a figure dressed as a ghost, perpetually on the verge of tumbling from the stepladder—blind to their surroundings as the white fabric tangles around their feet. The ladder, standing alone in an empty room, takes on a ritualistic and sacred quality, acquiring new layers of meaning.
