Time Was Water, is a collaborative performance with Martina Govednik In this piece, Govednik performs traditional South Balkan songs, adorned in a fabric piece painted by Velkova. The painted textile becomes a living extension of the space, dynamically interacting with the architecture as the singer moves. Their reinterpretation of traditional songs breathes new life into the melodies, blending heritage and innovation. Together, Velkova and Govednik craft a multisensory experience that bridges art, movement, and sound, transforming tradition into a contemporary exploration of renewal and connection.
