This video dance project is a sort of condensed poetical and cynical look on the situation in the ex-Yugoslav territory. Hysterical and hectic dance movements are put in juxtaposition with surrealistic artificially constructed imagery, based on Magritte's paintings and documentary shoots of the refuge camps, where Bosnians refuges lived in Ljubljana. The crucial moment of the video work is the "installation" of the body in the traumatic places of the outer and inner world. The architecture of misery and deprivation: refuges camps, zoological gardens, rooms with odds and found images etc., forms a specific territory that forces the body, the psyche and memory (of dancers) to final solutions.
