Prošle sedmice, ovdje u Banjaluci, u Muzeju Savremene Umjetnosti Republike Srpske [MSURS] otvorena je multimedijalna izložba „Slika/vrijeme" [Image/Time] trebinjskog umjetnika Igora Bošnjaka, koji, kako piše u najavi događaja „svojim radovima reaguje na savremenu umjetničku i društvenu scenu Bosne i Hercegovine". Pošto nisam bio u prilici da odem na otvaranje [da budem iskren uvijek više volim u miru i tišini, ako je ikako moguće sam, da uživam u nečijem stvaralačkom radu] svratio sam danas do - očekivano - potpuno praznog MSURS i odgledao nekoliko radova ovog autora koje bih, zbog zanimljivog sadržaja kao i dostupnosti na internetu, vrlo rado podijelio sa blogerima.

Od otprilike desetak video radova prikazanih na izložbi koja će trajati do 15. maja, za blog sam izdvojio tri: „BHS" , „13 photos" [13 fotografija] i „Contemporary Cemeteries" [Savremena groblja] a sa zvaničnog sajta umjetnika [www.igorbosnjak.com] beskrupuloznim poštovanjem njegovih, kako tamo šaljivo stoji, copylefts-a, preuzeo sam transkript rada „C-FIS" [2007] koji problematizuje pitanje identiteta a može i da posluži kao svojevrsna lična karta ili autopoema autora.

C - Fis // Complicated - Fuckin' Identity Song

Who am I?
My name is Igor.
That is some kind of a Russian Orthodox name.
My surname is Bošnjak.
I was born in 1981.
Sarajevo. SFR Yugoslavia.
1984 was a year of ZOI winter Olympic Games in Sarajevo.
My parents divorced in 1986.
I was born an atheist.
My father is a Croat. Atheist.
My mother is Montenegrian. Atheist.
I was too young, and I did not know anything about me.
About my identity.
From 1989 I live with my mother and my two sisters.
War began in 1992.
Sarajevo. Bosnia & Herzegovina.
From the year '93 I have lived in Trebinje in a new formed state named the Republic of Srpska.
Since that time I started to feel like a Bosnian Serb.
In fact, paradoxically, I am a Bosnian Serb.
In that period of time accidentally my surname Bošnjak become name for nationality of Bosnian Muslims.
In that moment I knew for sure, because of many reasons, that I was not a Muslim.
Accidentally on summer 1996 I start to believe in God.
Year 2000 I start to study paintings at Fine Arts Academy.
At the fortress of Petrovaradin in Novi Sad (Serbia), in the year 2004 I become an Orthodox Christian.
My feelings become reality.

In that moment I become a real Bosnian Serb with Orthodox Christian religious view.
In the year 2005 I finished the Academy.
My name is still Igor.
My surname is still Bošnjak.
But I am not Bošnjak, I am Serb with Orthodox Christian religious view.
Who am I?
Am I Serb with Orthodox Christian religious views?
Maybe I am Bosnian because I live in Bosnia & Herzegovina.
Maybe I am Bosnian Muslim because they used to call themselves Bošnjaks.
Maybe I am Croat by nationality because my father is.
Maybe I am Montenegrian by nationality because my mother is.
Maybe I am Serb because I feel like a Serb.
Maybe I am Serb because I am a human with Orthodox Christian religious view.
Maybe I am even a Yugoslav.
Maybe I am human with social communist or neo liberal capitalism views.
Who am I?
Never mind.
In the end I don't know who I am.
Only things that I know in the end are my name and my surname.
I am an Orthodox Christian also.
Also I know there is a God.
I don't believe in any of my identity.
All my identities are some kind of constructed beings.

Life is when you are a small boy and you are picking your nose.
