Another year. Updated design, by @updeko . The Wiese Temple 2025 @garbicz_festival . It was meant to be. The process flowed organically and although some changes were made on site, the vision still held. Im pleased with the results. Gratitude. Thank you team for the best build yet. We had 12 countries participating in our crew. It was magic. Thank you to our lighting from Denmark, projections from Germany, build from Croatia, painting from Serbia and volunteers from all across the globe. Without you the stage would not shine as bright as it did.
