Periphery of the History / History on the Periphery

video, 2.47 min


The video is a record of discarded statues from the period of socialism, which were moved from the centre to the periphery - from Kosice city to the outskirts of Saca. The statues express the transformation of the political situation and as a symbol of power become a symbol of helplessness against historical development. The video captures nature's indifference to political significance, the everyday ordinary day in the countryside. The sounds of the bells symbolically end the epoch of one dystopia.
