The same motifs and elements were used in different locations and spaces. Photo of the President of Yugoslavia, Josip Broz Tito, Stone as a symbol of his rule and forced labor, as well as a video of the performance, carrying the stone that happened in Užice in 2021.
The island is naturally isolated with strong winds and currents in the surrounding sea, There were no trees or drinking water on it and it was not inhabited, so it was ideal for a kind of Yugoslav gulag. Offering a stone as a sacrifice for the sake of prosperity. An island torn from the world inhabited by those who cooperated with Informbiro, and later by all those who did not want to obey Yugoslav regime. A seemingly forgotten model of instilling fear among the inhabitants of the so-called utopian ideal. Events from the past that reciprocally return to the future, can we escape the past? In which way the islands like this, not in this form, still exist today?
