Bulletin Board - Neli Ruzic & Marie-Christine Camus: Journey to the Island (The Hole/The Midwife)

Journey to the Island is a project by artists Neli Ruzic and Marie-Christine Camus. Through the recording of testimonies and photographs, they narrate the story of a particular moment on the island of Solta in Croatia. A pit known as Rudine in 1943 was used to disappear people suspected of being against the Yugoslavian resistance (the partisans) and in 1998 was transformed into a memorial. The artists are interested in the myths that arise from the oral histories of this place, in this case specifically the story of a midwife, one of the victims.
