I am singing a Slovenian folk song which exists in many variations and Slovenian dialects. I am exploring and working with its melody and lyrics, which I not only modified and added new text to it but also sang in combination of three different languages: Slovenian, Bosnian-Herzegovinian and German (Vienna dialect).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At first glimpse, this work might seem as being just about the music. But as the title suggests, the theme of it is a complex investigation into my different identities. The early childhood experience of a war refugee, someone who was forcefully displaced and had to quickly adjust and assimilate into the new environments, heavily influenced and shaped my own persona.<br>The trauma caused by this displacement is continuously elaborated in my work and my intention with this particular video is to show that, despite bad experience, I must accept the events and cherish my multi-cultural, social and political identities formed under these circumstances. The element of the mirror and &#8216;the mask&#8217; in form of makeup suggest the never-ending hiding and revealing of these identities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the help of the music, I am going back to the roots but also staying true to all the places that shaped me into the person I am today and which continue to be my many places I am excited to call home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sanjalasic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DJPVS_Foto-Frame.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sanjalasic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DJPVS_Foto-Frame.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.sanjalasic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DJPVS_Foto-Frame-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.sanjalasic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DJPVS_Foto-Frame-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sanjalasic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/DJPVS_Foto-Frame-700x467.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Sanja Lasi\u0107, Video frame, 2021<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Slovena\u010dka Bosanka \/ Bosanska Slovenka2021video04&#8217;48&#8221; Title translation:Slovenian Bosnian \/ Bosnian Slovenian The video is both a performance piece as it is a music video.
