Redoing all other Balkan Operas that I did in different places gave me different perspective of understanding the piece and the final act it’s like I concluded what was happening on Balkan not only in the terms of recent history. Balkan beside its natural and cultural beauty has unfortunately that attraction for everyone so war situation is common, since geographically is crossroad and controlling him means controlling this part of Europe. This performance is for all the victims who lost their life’s and to all the young man whose blood flooded Balkan. This is the last act of this performance and hopefully it will be the last chapter for Balkans wars.

The performance is both a social segment of the human personality, and his relationship that we have with ourselves and by that we place postulates the estimated value of our life. Are we important enough not to be forgotten and are the things like artworks or any other thing something that just make us to choose our way to be forgotten?

Photographs represent different states of mind when it comes to end of our existence. As much as they are characterize personal point of view, they are also fears of us all and our unconsciousness how time pass by so quickly. It deals also with social issues and awareness of those issues. This is not exhibition that deals with depression or any negative emotions, but just it’s a warning that we are not dead and that we can change our way of living and occupied it with wonderful miracles of life. This old Latin saying “Memento mori” is hear for celebration of life and I have to quote Nat King Col’s song: “The greatest thing you'll ever learn, Is just to love and be loved in return”. I believe that that’s the purpose in life, not to forget our mortality and share our love as much as it’s possible. Artistically this photographs shows diversity of styles and each photography bears their meaning in the name of the work. Maybe sometimes confusing, maybe sometimes dreamy, sometimes wishful, sometimes social issue, but all of them shows personal and global themes that are close to us, whether we like it or not. Just like Latin saying “Memento mori”, we don’t want to think about death, but there it is and one day we have to confront it. Also this photographs bears irony. I find irony as something that could be entertaining, but also something that it deadly significant.

Symbols that I choose for these paintings, through their meaning, represent some of our biggest fears, longings, interhuman relations and correlations with nature. Symbol of Andromalius is interpreted through prism of moral, Befafesa in context of human unacceptability to fight the nature, Phul represents the biggest human existential fear (fear of death) and desire for eternity. Symbol of Yog-Sothot shows longing for something ancient, but without knowledge of what ancient is, since humans always idealize the past and even within that past they would long for something that was before that. Dantalion is the symbol of love or in the context of the world lack of it. Symbolism is deeply rooted in our consciousness or in the way of our existence. As Ouspensky observes: "...symbols are directly meant to awake the ideas that are sleeping within our consciousness...they have to remain elastic, undetermined and ambivalent...Their purpose is to discover mysteries, leaving to mind its full freedom.“

Installation of the author Goran Micevski "Dancing Lessons" has been taken as the basis of this performance. The Dancing lessons presents the model of dancing lessons, usually they are black marks of footsteps that are depicted on the floor, following them we are learning the steps of a certain dance. In this instance, i.e., "Dancing footsteps" the marks are made of glass and they do not serve a purpose of teaching a popular dance. When we barefooted follow these steps there is a possibility of making wounds that can implicates various aspects of understanding this performance (sociological, psychological, philosophical) since it shows that what we are taking for granted may be more dangerous when we put it in context of human existence.
