An ‘Isla’ embodies a new, yet transformed area. Where all systems are the result of socio-ecological disaster. Those who reach the island are in fact survivors of the wreckage, be it physical, ecological or cultural. Their dysfunctional remains are the basis for the creation of islands, which are themselves the result of a process of adaptation by the exiles, of separation from civilisation with its legal system, and of phenomena such as climate catastrophe, technological overdevelopment, moral relativism, sociological and urban problems.

Video performance
In collaboration with Alicja Wysocka
Vranjska banja, Serbia


The project focuses on the theme of sacred sites, healing water and the ‘touch that heals’. Referring to the conflict between overwhelming industrial growth, rising agnosticism and simultanious longing for faith. In the form of an audiovisual essay, we pose the question of how and whether a belief system can change our perception of the world.

The filming is shot in a mountain village of Vranicka Banja, Serbia - a town with healing groundwater, surrounded by industrial areas, filled with long-forgotten hotels and oneiric fountains
