I LOVE YOU

Performance

2007

"My personal intention in this performance is to reflect the long unstable relationship which may be caused by too much concluding myself with the collective identification. I have been experimenting myself within the confronted situations, where cultural deviances is very challenging the communication between me and the society I live with. The fears and the joyful feelings I can get at the same time for seeing myself as part of stereotype, has reduced my general justification to what may happen within millions of people who live in different cultures than their origin and who try to express the collective feeling of love. I may have not been succeeded yet to understand the true meaning of love, but I may understand it now that love does not necessarily have to do with language or cultural identity."

"I love You" is using a glass platform, which the artist interacts and moves, while she says "I love You!" during the whole duration of the performance.



Duration of the performance: 3 hours
