The X post by Nikola Rikanović features a video comparing the pectoral crosses of Pope Francis and Patriarch Kirill, with a focus on their designs and symbolic meanings, possibly highlighting differences in religious traditions or personal significance.
The video includes a sketch of Donald Trump with a bloodied face, which may reference the assassination attempt on July 13, 2024, and could suggest a narrative linking religious symbolism with political events or figures.
Rikanović's associated project involves placing a "twin" of a water cross, originally placed on the Danube in Novi Sad, in Pennsylvania for the 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026, aiming to symbolize God's presence and salvation, potentially in collaboration with the Butler Institute of American Art.
