Straaaaaava!
BBeing totally unfamiliar to Serbian language, Michikazu Matsune learned to speak some phrases that might be helpful at various occations while visiting the country for the firsrt time — such as “Nice to meet you.”, “Seriously!?”, “Help!”, “I will miss you.” This installation comprises of 30 text paintings and voice recordings of the artist practicing the language. An absurd play between spoken and unspoken matters.
