00:00 Each skull of this necklace symbolizes the death of a worker.
00:03 I was looking for a new work to present to you,
00:07 and I thought it might be interesting to talk about a recent work.
00:10 As this weekend, France is going to play its third star,
00:13 I thought about the World Cup.
00:15 Although tragic, the work of the Danish James Goldschiott caught my eye.
00:20 Named #Qatar6500 and composed of 6500 miniature skulls,
00:25 this necklace is the funest symbol of the 6500 migrant workers who died between 2011 and 2020
00:30 for the construction of new infrastructures,
00:32 such as stadiums and roads for the 2022 World Cup.
00:35 The heat, combined with excessive working hours and a lack of access to care,
00:40 would have led to cardiac arrest and kidney problems.
00:43 Also, despite the eagerness for the final,
00:47 it seemed relevant to me to have at least one thought,
00:50 as fleeting as it is, for the families of these victims.
