Anja Medved - Sewn Memories (43:18)
Subtitle: Cross-Border Memory Collection Actio
Production: Kinoatelje, Kinokašča, 2015
In 2012, a campaign of digitization of family photos owned by locals and villagers from the neighboring village of Livek, located on the other side of the border, was carried out within the Topolova Station. On this occasion, each owner of the photo was invited to tell in front of the camera about the memory of the selected frozen moment. The villages of Topolovo and Livek used to be in constant contact, so the purpose of the project is to sew together memories that were violently broken by the border. Cro...

Lealudvik - Teufelskreis (02:25)
Production: Lealudvik, 2018
The video is an endless loop presenting a top-down view of an empty white surface, on which the naked protagonist crawls with obvious difficulty. Just before she disappears at the other end of the frame, a new instance appears, crawling to the other side with difficulty again. The overlap of the frames illustrates a vicious circle (Teufelskreis) from which there is no way out. (Source: DIVA Station) The video installation was part of the exhibition Lealudvik: As it is, so be it at Škuc Gallery in 2020.

Dr. Xenia, Andreja Džakušič, Keiko Miyazaki, Iva Tratnik, Simon Macuh - The House of Cards (06:45)
Production: SCCA-Ljubljana, Galerija Alkatraz, Festival Mesto žensk, 2021
In the performance The House of Cards, Dr Xenia does not travel north or west by train, but in a south-easterly direction. On the route that led to Kumrovec in the previous country, but ends at the last station in front of the Croatian border in the new country, it tries to make a house out of cards. The impossible task is reminiscent of the inability to create safe life and home, which constantly elude refugees and migrants, as well as precarious workers of all ages, including cultural workers. At the end...
