Dialogue I

Dialogue I  is a part of the exhibition Dialogue I, II and III. Comparing the past with the present, I deconstruct the social position of woman and critically comment on construction of motherhood. Dialogue I videotapes large frames of Meštrović’s sculptures of mothers and blends them with Doppler sound of my (then) unborn child.In this way, I reduce Meštrović’s symbols to physical materiality. By revealing material vulnerability of sculptures, I examine physical aspects of motherhood and the lapse of time.
