Lejla Begić & Izeta Građević “Untitled”

Obala Meeting Point, Internet café, SCCA-Sarajevo, Čobanija… (Sarajevo)
August 22 – September 20, 1998

 

The work of Lejla Begić and Izeta Građević is a work about silence and the condition of conspiracy (friendly, ideological, amatory, childish?). The work is made of a number of pairs of authors’ portraits (who mutually made them) mounted one across from the other in almost all the entrances connected to the space designated for the exhibition. The eyes are placed at the same height on opposing sides of each entry, closing an imaginary line, an invisible photo-cell, by which the authors become keepers of the determined space. Passerby “interrupts” the permanent line of their gaze.
