Action
Location - forest road near Česká Lípa
I commenced my piece by walking, blindfolded, down a winding road in the middle of a forest at midnight. I walked alone. Being able to differentiate between the asphalt or grass under my feet helped me to stay within the perimeter of the road. I walked for a long time. When I had completely lost all sense of distance and time, I stopped and, using my finger, I drew an imaginary line across the road. This virtual “border” divided my personal universe into two universes: where I have been and where I have not. I returned. The next night, around the same time, I undertook the same trip, blindfolded, again. My goal was not to cross the preset line from the previous day. I tried to guess where the exact spot that I had drawn the line was and stopped there, turned around and returned to the start. The most important objective was to drive the non-knowledge about my whereabouts to the highest possible intensity: to exist, for a while, nowhere.
