Bratislava 2025

Od 11. do 23. novembra privítala Bratislava Shannon Sullivanovú a Moyu De Feyterovú, aby preskúmali jej ulice, zvuky a príbehy a premenili svoje dojmy na verše. Ich slová sa stali súčasťou mesta, oživené prostredníctvom nástenných malieb, ktoré vytvorili Patrícia Koyšová a Lívia Kožuškovová .

Moya De Feyter

we invite the flowers we invite the people

we invite the people to leave the flowers be
we invite the flowers to leave the people be

we invite the people to flower to be and to gently
invite the flowers to flower as flowers
as people who flower to be

we grow words to leave the flowers be
we whisper leaves to leave the people be
we gently invite you to flower and gently

gently be

Shannon Sullivan

Sakura

cherry blossoms flood my memory

mark my season

one year older

i bathe in the offerings of the Sakura

like a waterfall

wash them over me

vanilla-scented impermanence

into the succulent earth receptive

i discharge the dense humming of my brain

bared on the forest floor

the soles of my feet caress pine needles

* based on an interview with Gabriela Vassova - Petrzalka / Pekná cesta, Krasnany

Wall Clock - Petrzalka I

buildings sprouted imposing stalks
of isolation
after the regime
high-rise-honeycomb-matrices
buzzing
busy-ness-men’s-minds

what is the flavour of not knowing your neighbours’ names?

‘a wall clock
was the last thing i took with me
from the grey flat in Petrzalka
crouched on the bank
wall clock at my side
to say good-bye
to the river’

* based on an interview with Gabriela Vassova - Petrzalka

Crow - Petrzalka II

Engerau

grabs our ankles

needles lace

vacant faces

footsteps disjointed

memory limps

* inspired by an interview with Gabriela Vassova and additional research - Petrzalka

more pauses than words

sentences more pauses than words

in whose image do we rebuild
