The Voyage: Sawka / Skrzek / Stachura

The Voyage. Sawka. Skrzek. Stachura. A statement by three masters of the image, of music, and of poetry about history, the present and the future. It is an ANTI-WAR performance that presents a collective portrait of humanity. It is a journey through life and the human experience of birth, creation, destruction, healing, and rebirth. The Voyage consists of 1,202 paintings by the extraordinary artist Jan Sawka, combined into a video projection accompanied by live music composed by Józef Skrzek, made complete with poetry written by Edward Stachura. Skrzek's composition is a musical response to the monumental themes of the performance.
