I Am Breaking My Heart – Audiovisual performance

On Monday, 10 October from 20:00 at Kino ARMATA we invite you to the performance I AM BREAKING MY HEART by Leart Rama. The performance is part of Sekhmet Institute’s artistic intervention LOVE is LOVE is LOVE for Manifesta 14 Prishtina – a choral, multimedia reflection on what brings people together, and the true meaning of equality and love.

Free drinks will be provided during the event.

I AM BREAKING MY HEART

I live, I breathe
I destroy myself and you…
The abyss that will never let me see the above.
The Sun rises and sets… forever, maybe
but I never see the light.
Inside circles of my doppelgangers
I try to point fingers,
to let the guilt out.
The fingers come back to me…

“I am Breaking My Heart” is an audiovisual performance by Leart Rama, violently exploring grief, hysteria and numbness. It is a deep dive into the weight of shame and self-destruction, and the silent whispers that say: “Whatever you are, it’s your fault.”

“I am Breaking My Heart” was originally created during Rama’s artist-in-residency Q21 Wien and performed in 2019, with support from CEL Kosovo and Youth artivists for change.

WARNING
The audiovisual performance may have adverse effects on people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.
