Marko Milić is researching how traumatic events shape our capability to observe the world around us. How the horrific experiences cause us to become hopelessly stuck in the past and what happens in our minds and brains that keeps us frozen, trapped in a place we desperately wish to escape? LUMI serves as a catalysts to our tendency to superimpose our traumas on everything we see. LUMI evaluates different sides of humiliation and abuse and searches for inequality in our daily interactions. It is inspired by non-consensual use of bodies and by the impact of humiliation on our daily choices, desires and communication.

In scope of “Artist as curator” project by Forum/Dança, with the curation of Sezen Tonguz.

This show will be performed in english, without subtitles.
