Visual art exhibitions and events with a platform for critical writing
By: Magda Szarota
i invited warsaw for a psychoanalytic (photo)session. by posing questions made her pose. ashamed of nakedness she wore costumes torn by war. those bits&pieces like death, fire &destruction with pulsing life, desire &love as lining. parallel tracks do intersect in the end.
Explores liminal phase that is life by hunting haunting. enjoys undercutting sorrow by (silent) laughter migrating recycling. Images/words/time space/short cuts lots of sleep!

phone boooths
skypes & alikes
voices like stones echoing miles apart
a heart's hopscotch

relax, they say
if you roll the memories fast enough
the afterimage of the battlefield
will be just light
in the tunnel
