Gehinnom: Tophet

The word tuft means to burn, and the temple was built by the Jews. Another name for this place is a temple to sacrifice thousands of children. In this temple, there are large boulders next to each other to sacrifice children. From the large number of boulders next to each other, it can be concluded that at that time, the Tunisian people sacrificed many children at the same time for the sake of God. From the evidence obtained, it can be seen that about 20,000 infants and children were sacrificed in this temple.

gehinnom “Gehinnom” is a collection of photographs and videos related to a micro-theatre project with the same name which was inspired by the works of “Hotel Modern” theatre group and "Jan Švankmajer" experiences. “Gehinom” is a visual narrative and an imaginary representation of life before and after death and the name and concept of it come from a valley in Jerusalem and the biblical term that corresponds to the Christian Hades, Hell or Purgatory.
