SERBIA
Na Tragu Slobode (On The Trail Of The Liberty)
Words by Aleksandra Mitrović
November, 2020
On The Trail Of The Liberty is a video work I have created during the year 2020, after I composed the sound. The composition was made after the first COVID lockdown and was my response to restrictions that made me feel complete loss of my freedom to that point in time. The only way I knew how to present that feeling at that point was through sound, which I later complemented with video work during the autumn, when restrictions became a common thing. This video represents my way to comprehend a question of freedom, to accept the new normality brought upon us with the new way of reality which has, in my opinion, changed a lot since the beginning of the pandemic.
