Days 2 & 6 of Dada Actions : There and Here

The DADA WITCH ( Performance ) June 13 2018 : ITALIA
Dada Action conceived and performed by Virginia Milici ( VirgyM)


 LA STREGA DADA /THE DADA WITCH
     Io sono un insieme di molecole  dada
       Non trovo spazio in questo mondo di Gas
          Sono libera anarchica  e pacifista
            Vedo  la realtà  come un insieme caotico
         l’uomo non vive più in simbiosi con la natura
                               Ma per distruggerla
            L’arte é come la vita deve accettare il caos
   io sono la mia opera d’arte che mi riconduce ad essere vita
                        espressione di pensiero  e gestualità
   Ora con il mio mezzo più antico, tolgo il Gas e volo altrove
                               Alla ricerca delle origini !

                                 I am a set of dada molecules
       I can not find space in this world of Gas
          I am an anarchist and pacifist free
            I see reality as a chaotic whole
         man no longer lives in symbiosis with nature
                               But to destroy it
    Art is how life must accept chaos
I am my work of art that brings me back to life
                    expression of thought and gestures
And now with my oldest vehicle I take off the gas and fly somewhere else
                               In search of origins
