the project has been realised with the help of the City Office for Culture and The Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia, 2003

In the form of a dance production for six dancers, we are asking the following questions: how can you retell something private, autobiographical? What does it mean to analyze the events of your own experience through somebody else? How does one's body remember it's own autobiographical moments, and how does it reproduce those of another?
The doubt - that the totality of one man's emotions, memories and sensations can never be available to somebody else, because it is not available to him/herself - is explored through sharp sketches representing banal human relationships on the verge of the absurd, witty, surreal...
Still, the emphasis is on the dance experience improvised from the given human disharmonies...
Fragmentation and onyric iconophilia are the reflection of the choreographic intuition in the restructuring of her own little histories...

Choreographer' s note: the performance is divided into 9 images that are not necessarily connected: pieces of memory, or flash- backs, but also reveries. Those moments of being when we dream awake or see through events differently .But I would call it my personal, not” distorted” world view. To permit oneself the possibility to be one` s own self, even to be different, as we all are; to see things in your own way; to dispose of your lifetime as you see fit…We should also freely waste it on our own fancies and desires…We should also uselessly wait in the name of something only we
believe in.

Dedication: This show is dedicated to my yearning, my phantasies and the man I'm still waiting for. (Snježana Abramović)
