Ova umjetnička knjiga donosi živopisno putovanje autora od domovine do dijaspore, od tamo do ovdje i nazad ispočetka. Ispisana je intimnim ali i oštrim narativima i refleksijama,
uz podršku serije auto-etnografskih foto dokumenata i crteža koji otkrivaju Mladenovu složenu odiseju.
Saradnja sa dramaturgom Petrom Sarjanovićem i dizajnerom Nemanjom Mićevićem sjedinjuje naizgled različite priče, putopise, refleksije i scene,
ispunjavajući stranice iskustvima obilježenim dolascima i odlascima, integracijskim procesima i pozicijama bliskih saradnika. Na širem planu, ova knjiga pruža čitaocima intimno i nijansirano razumevanje stalnih,
ali inherentno istorijskih, migracija unutar Evrope. To je istraživanje koje prevazilazi vrijeme i prostor, pozivajući čitaoce da razmišljaju o dubokim putovanjima
onih koji prelaze delikatnu liniju između doma i dijaspore.
This artist-book presents a vivid journey of the author from homeland to diaspora, from there to here and back again. It is written with intimate yet incisive narratives and reflections,
supported by a series of auto-ethnographic photo documents and drawings that reveal Mladen's intricate odyssey.
The collaboration with dramaturge Petar Sarjanović and designer Nemanja Mićević seamlessly blends seemingly disparate stories, travelogues, reflections, and scenes, filling the pages with experiences marked by arrivals and departures,
integration processes, and the positions of close collaborators. On a broader scale, this book provides readers with an intimate and nuanced understanding of ongoing, yet inherently historical, migrations within Europe.
It is an exploration that transcends time and space, inviting readers to contemplate the profound journeys of those who traverse the delicate line between home and diaspora.
