“Pomoću pukotina se rekonstruiše proces koji je doveo do pucanja, loma u određenom materijalu. Paralelnim postavljanjem fotografisanih pukotina i zapuštenih enterijera Dušica Dražić je, u dva različita registra, na mikro i na makro planu ukazala na mogućnost rekonstruisanja procesa defunkcionalizacije određenog prostora kao konkretnog događaja – otud i naziv rada. Zamračeni prostori na kojima se ne razaznaje gotovo ništa ili samo neki detalj, time što nude minimum informacija ostavljaju otvorenim polje za postavljanje niza mogućih pitanja o prirodi samog događaja: o uzrocima, okolnostima, specifičnostima, razlozima koji su doveli do njegove defunkcionalizacije. Posmatrač na tu situaciju reaguje upravo tako što, samim tim što nije sasvim siguran o kakvom događaju je reč, raspolaže sa nizom arbitrarnih scenarija koje nastoji da poveže sa fotografisanom situacijom. Međutim, nemogućnost definisanja samog događaja ne uključuje samo scenarije s negativnim predznakom (o odumiranju, napuštanju…) već i one koji ukazuju na potencijale za njegovo oživljavanje u nekom novom kontekstu.“

“The process which led to a crack or fracture in a material is reconstructed by cracks. By parallel display of photographed cracks and neglected interiors, Dusica Drazic has pointed out, in two different registers – at micro and macro level, to a possibility of reconstruction of a defunctionalisation process of a certain space in a form of a concrete event, therefore the title of the work. Obscure spaces, in which nothing or barely a detail are discernible, by offering a minimum information, leave space open for posing a number of possible questions regarding the nature of the event itself: concerning its causes, circumstances, specificities, reasons for its defunctionalisation. A spectator, not being completely certain what sort of event is taking place, reacts to that situation by having at its disposal a number of arbitrary scenarios, which he is trying to connect with a situation photographed. However, the inability of defining the event itself does not include only negative scenarios (those concerning dying out, abandoning) but also those pointing out to potentials for its revival in a new context.”

Maja Stankovic (Excerpt from the text “The Event Place”)
