Absence Art Manifesto lived on my computer for four years. I looked into it from time to time and added or deleted sentences. It has its origins in my start at the university, at a time when my kid was still a baby, and I was very unsure about how to handle everything all together. I pulled Absence Art Manifesto out of my computer because I wanted to share it with others and finally felt safe enough to show it, after all. The reason I feel safer now is that I grew into a supportive community of artists. We are constantly empowering each other.
