Insomnia, performance



1/60 insurgent space is the name of a space that move itself continuously inside the cities, producing exhibitions whose intent is to put to comparison international artists with various places, different from the "institutional ones", in order to create new arguments around the art and its borders. This is the fourth of a series of nine exhibitions programmed in Tirana, from January until September, curated every month by Stefano Romano and a different curator each time.

THURSDAY 21ST OF July AT 20.00: Bus Station For South Albania

This performance piece is based on the feeling of being lost and the constant longing and desire for the place/time/people that were lost. The performer is naked, sitting in a black suitcase (the same suitcase that she took in the moment when she left her house), changing positions every two minutes. The suitcase is a representation of everything that was left and taken in a two minute time period before leaving home by force or to reach safety. The signal for the position changes is a simple audio background. A female voice numbers things that one would possibly want to put in a suitcase: memories, dreams. The audience is asked to participate by writing a list of the things that they would take two minutes before leaving their house. If the performance is performed more than once in one place, it becomes a cumulate memory of the community that constitutes the festival/event background. The suitcase, the lists made by the audience, and the audio are bringing the dimension of absence, loss, and dream trauma on an equally profound level.

â-œThis piece was developed out of dream that constantly comes back to me. The dream that I am packing myself and I have to leave one more time. This dream articulates the trauma that I had experienced as an internally displaced person during the war conflict in Macedonia in 2002. It is a constant reminder of the thinks that I lost and gained by being a refugee. Since that period I have been moving and traveling a lot, mainly for educational and artistic purposes, but I still have the same dream hunting me. And I still have a feeling of lost deep down in my dreams. Feeling that something really important was taken and it can never be returned back. That is why my work is so closely connected to and inspired by the political and economical crises in the Eastern European region. My art projects are strongly intercrossed with social work and bringing art out of institutions, to non-art audiences. With my performance company, I was working with refugees, orphans and juveniles in the Balkan region and around Europe. Our program is specifically treating the changes that the body is manifesting due to post-traumatic stress. Insomnia is one of the first manifestations of trauma and lost. My own insomnias are the reason why I made â-œWhat are you going to take 2 minutes before you leave your home?â-œ.
