In her foreword, Tena Bak\u0161aj <\/strong>emphasizes:
\n\u201eAs in the previous work, text forms the central element of this site-specific installation. In this case, the text takes the form of a message sent to a loved one after the end of a relationship, which serves as a representation of pathos and youthful innocence in the pursuit of romantic attachment, but is also a kind of self-reflection or an attempt to break the illusion we have created about someone but also functions as self-reflection, an attempt to dispel illusions created around another person. The title itself, using three different languages in one sentence, subtly hints at a subcontext \u2013 the virtual quest for a partner often leads to relocation abroad, and relationships with foreigners frequently culminate in a moment of parting. Whether it is the fear of separation or of connection, of intimacy or the economic opportunities that lead to moving, Marlen Ban skilfully reflects broader social phenomena and mechanisms through the synthesis of personal thoughts and emotions, weaving social engagement into her chosen themes.\u201d<\/p>\n
