I was so engrossed in the performance at New Zero Art Space today
that I even felt that I want to shout out loud. I was suffocated like I
was back to the solitary cell for 28 days at interrogation center in
prison. Each time after shouting "Doe A Yae", Burmese Artist Thyitar
covered her face with a rubber band. Meanwhile Belgium Artist said "Our
Rights", and she also covered her with rubber bands. While they were
taking turns to do so, I was praying that rubber bands are used up
faster. When I realized myself, I already got teary-eyed. I had to seal
my mouth tightly to not cry out. Also when they cut rubber bands from
each other's faces, I wanted them to do it quickly to loosen tighten
areas on their faces. I recorded this performance because it touched me
so. Thanks to Aye Ko and Madam Aye Ko for inviting me to the event. Kyi Khin Min Zaw
This performance was created by Béatrice Didier in collaboration with Thyitar.
