Freedom/In the Frame

The video is a record of a performance, where I deliver conceptual and visual language through my own body. In "artistic freedom" I am joined this time by the artist Mojca Senegačnik. We are asking ourselves when we own ourselves and when we own someone else. How messed up is freedom when we wonder whether to trust people who do things in the name of interest? "Can I still be a free man, or will you take away my freedom of choice, which could only endanger myself and those who, like me, would take that risk (the inoculated will not be endangered anyway)? (Fr Karl Grzan) In all the outward brilliance, I feel that we are living in a time when the darkness is gloomier than the night in the Middle Ages. But I am inspired by the optimism of Consciousness and by the experience of history that even in the blackest darkness, people wake up focused on the light that is bursting through the cracks.
