Documentary Memories (1 drawing + 1 text) of women fleeing the wars in Bosnia and Croatia, about pre-war coexistence and glimpses of peace, collected through the activist field work of the Women in Black at Mala Krsna, Kovilovo and Mikulja refugee camps during 1994; they were collected in a book bearing the name I Remember, printed with money raised by street sale campaigns by female comrades-in-arms from

Italy and Spain. Published by Women in Black, Belgrade, 1995. Edited by: Radmila Žarković

The concept of the action I REMEMBER and the design of the book: škart

 In the 1990s, I collaborated with Women in Black, a small group of women in Belgrade, who formed a local branch of the international network of women against war.  In October 1991, this group of women decided to take a political stand.  They began a public, non-violent protest against war and any kind of ethnic hatred, the regime of Slobodan Miloševic, nationalism and militarism, discrimination and violence.  The Return, produced for the The Nineties: A Glossary of Migrations exhibition at the Museum of Yugoslavia in Belgrade marks our continued collaboration and friendship.
