Zbigniew Libera - Mystical Perseverance

Back


Zbigniew Libera - "Mystical Perseverance", 1984 "Mystical Perseverance" shows Regina G monotonously and unconsciously performing the simple activity of turning a chamber pot. The activity originated in Regina G's ritual of saying the rosary prayer with her rosary beads. This ritual eventually took another form, that of rotating the rosary around her neck. After a time, Regina G. changed the direction that the rosary was rotating, causing the rosary to loop around her neck. So the rosary, as a dangerous thing, was taken away. In its place Regina G. seized on the first object at hand, which happened to be a chamber pot. The recorded activity consists of the persistent turning of the pot around its axis, while at the same time retaining its primary function. Thus, according to the need, it becomes either a medium or a receptacle for excrements. Courtesy Raster Gallery Warsaw
