Live artist Janina Moninska is carries out research into the connections between the experiences of refugees past and present. Inspired by Agamben’s statement, ‘Only when the citizen has been able to recognize the refugee that he or she is – only in such a world is the political survival of humankind today thinkable’, she creates public moments of Live Art and instant intimacy that illuminates this connection and contributes to current debates around cultural memory and identity.
