In I Want to be a Party, I make embroideries and paintings, to tell particular stories of my childhood, personalizing disasters, and looking back at specific massacres and wars through a specific object that was sold by a family member, in order to survive a certain disaster: selling objects enabled people to flee, or to survive a few more weeks under curfew etc…

I Want to Be a Party reveals more elements from my ongoing research since 2003 (reseach made originally for developing my video “A la Santé des ), and it thus takes us back to unexpected resistance acts of women since 1922, and vulnerable male acts as well as twisted children’s desires, all combined with regional endless massacres and wars, and the will to survive them with a twist of irony.
