Robbery
9/2019 Festival Malamut, Ostrava, CZ

Two years before this performance, during the previous edition of the biennial performance festival Malamut in Ostrava in 2017, I was robbed on a street. During the theft, I fell on the pavement, hit my head, and started to bleed intensively. What followed was a series of absurd, unexpected, and retrospectively also funny events that included me running away with the identification documents of one of the robbers but coming back and returning them or the thieves accompanying me to the hospital. The performance I presented in Malamut 2019 was a re-enactment of the robbery.

The work was executed with the kind support of the three festival artists who agreed to take part in the performance. Thank you Salla Valle, Timo Viialainen, Chumpon Apisuk
