Martyna's Statment

The following text was part of a performance I did during the exam I had to take in spring.
First, I was standing very far away from the people on the panel.
Each time I said "I believe," I made a step toward them.
Each time I said "I don't believe," I made a step back from them.
At the end I was standing very close to them:
I believe in encounters
I don't believe in answers
I believe in conversation
I believe in the necessity of rituals
I believe in the possibility of changing rules
I don't believe in artist statements
