THE END oF DAze
Shaltmira created series of video performances during the period of March 15-30, when her country of residence, Lithuania, has declared a state emergency as a preventative measure against the spread of the Coronavirus. The series of video performances are titled "The End of Daze" and are based on the prophetic words from the Holy Bible, suggesting that the COVID-19 epidemic was foretold by the Bible's Book of Revelation.
AND IT SHALL BE IN THE LAST DAYS,' God says, 'THAT I WILL POUR FORTH OF MY SPIRIT ON ALL MANKIND; AND YOUR SONS AND YOUR DAUGHTERS SHALL PROPHESY, AND YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE VISIONS, AND YOUR OLD MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS.
Acts 2:17
Humanity is forced to stay at home because of COVID-19. It's a great time to read a book.

ISOLATION (2020)
As the whole country was in the state of emergency - she would withdraw to desolate places and play. No violence, just violin. Time slows down, flies prey. He promised to come back to his bride: ‘Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden in me.’ His words echo in her mind. She is faithful. She found his mark on the wall - nothing is accidental. She is in the right place. Waiting for her beloved in isolation. He will come as a thief. He said : ‘You will not know what hour I will come upon you.’
'Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments.' (Revelation 16:15 )

QUARANTINE (2020)
The panic of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is taking over the world. In Lithuania people are advised to stay at home for the upcoming two weeks. Shaltmira is preparing a seat for the one that should be coming soon.
A quarantine is a restriction on the movement of people and goods which is intended to prevent the spread of disease or pests. It is often used in connection to disease and illness, preventing the movement of those who may have been exposed to a communicable disease, but do not have a confirmed medical diagnosis.
‘No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand,
so that those who come in may see the light.’ (Luke 11:33)

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
(Psalm 119:105)
(Psalm 119:105)
Daze meaning 'a state of stunned confusion or bewilderment.'. Middle English: back-formation from dazed, from Old Norse dasathr ‘weary’; compare with Swedish dasa ‘lie idle’. The play words, 'daze' remins of 'days', which then changes the title into 'The End of Days', which is referring to the end times. The meaning is that in the end of times people will start having clarity of what is truly happening.
