Marina Abramović
The Grandmother of Performance Art
The body is the medium. I am the message.
I was born in Belgrade, in the ruins of war, under a strict mother who taught me discipline like a blade. I learned early that pain is not an end, but a path. I have cut myself open for art, starved, screamed, stood still until I became stone. I am not a performer. I am presence.
What I'm Into: the Danube at dawn, silent rooms, ritual purification, my mother's voice, endurance beyond reason
