National Body Art
Anita Wach • Magdalena Tuka
“I and the motherland are one. My name is Million, because for millions do I love and suffer agonies.”
Adam Mickiewicz
18th sentence of the 30 Movements cycle
National Body Art – it’s me and my almost suppressed space. I’m from Poland, I’m from Croatia, I’m from Slovenia. Today I’m giving myself a break. I allow myself to destroy. For redemption. Today I sing with many voices. Today I publicly perform the act of denying my inner spirit to hear what it sounds like. We disown each other. Let this reciprocity be our bewildering strength.
