Dragi Duje i Emina,

spremio sam vam nešto „Koktela“ i poslao po Branku. Činilo se jednostavnije tako nego da vam šaljem preko autobusa, a i dosta su dragocjeni. Nadam se da će svi stići u jednom komadu. Ukoliko neki i dođe razbijen, ne brinite. Prekrijte ga ručnikom i sa nekoliko dobrih udaraca čekićem zdrobite u finu staklastu prašinu, skupite na malu hrpicu te tako izložite. Ti moji „Kokteli“ su intimne hrpice dragocjenih predmeta, mahom nakita, šminke i odjeće s raznih drag nastupa, ali i prljavštine koja ostaje na podu nakon cjelonoćnih zabava, kristaliziranih u male svjetlucave forme što se drže u ruci. Mislim da su više pjesme nego skulpture, ali kad malo bolje razmislim, zapravo, sigurno su arhiv druženja sa dragim ljudima.

Također, u jednoj se kutiji nalazi nekoliko praznih boca što ih zovem “Spirits”. Ima ih dobrih i zlih, kako to već ide.

Vidimo se

Cheers

Damir

Dear Duje and Emina,

I prepared some “Cocktails” for you and sent them with Branko. This seemed simpler than sending them by bus, and besides they are quite precious. I hope they will all arrive in one piece. If, however, one of them does arrive broken, don’t worry. Cover it with a towel, give it a few good hammer blows and smash it into a fine glass dust, then collect it into a small pile and display it like that. These “Cocktails” of mine are intimate piles of precious objects, mainly jewellery, make-up and clothes from various drag performances, but also dirt that is left on the floor after all-night parties, crystallised into small glittering forms that fit into the palm of one’s hand. I think they are more poems than sculptures, but upon deeper reflection, they are, actually, an archive of time spent with people who are dear to me.

In addition, one of the boxes contains several empty bottles, which I call “Spirits”. There are good and evil spirits, as the saying goes.

See you

Cheers

Damir
