MAJA BAJEVIC and DANICA DAKIC::::

In Sarajevo, Maja Bajevic explains in ten sentences why she likes the city and in Paris, she responds in French with the same sentences, only this time they are negative.  Danica Dakic does the same with statements formulated in Bosnian and German.  Although the statements formulated in the mother tongue (Bosnian) and in the second language (French/German) oppose each other, they are not contradictory.  These statements are true according to the place and cultural context in which they are spoken.  The video installation ‘rotates’ through four monitors and (from the media standpoint as well) exposes the instability of a fixed concept of place and belonging, and by extension the instability of one’s identity.
