I'm Walking Behind You and Watching You

I’m Walking Behind
You and Watching You is a female map of the city in which memory holders
form the missing and ignored stories of women who worked their way through this
city, created it, swore by it and breathed it, as well as those who migrated to
it every day. If the Slovenian capital has as many as 360 monuments of local
significance, what is the number of annotations mentioning women?

Women's Remembrance Street at Cmakajne festival

On
September 20th at 17.00, you are invited to Cmakajne festival (at CMAK,
Cerkno), to the public viewing of two short videos-in-progress by artist
Ana Čigon. “Odkritje mačke v žaklju” (2014) and “Ljubljana,
mesto žensk” (2013) address the (absence of) memorials, dedicated to
women in Ljubljana. The first video was made as part of her same-titled
project, the second was made in collaboration with artists Leja Jurušić,
Teja Reba and Barbara Kapelj as part of their joint project
“I'm Walking Behind You and Watching You”, which premiered at last
year’s City of Women festival.

Which women who shaped our history
are still remembered? Who has been forgotten? Why is the visibility of
women in public space a feminist issue that concerns women and men of
all generations? These are some of the questions that are going to be
discussed after the screening, led by sociologist, writer and former Red
Dawns festival co-organiser Tea Hvala.

The event will
conclude with a walk, where the participants will count the number of
streets in Cerkno, which are named after women. In case of rain, the
walk is going to be replaced by a feature film screening.

No entrance fee. Open to all. In Slovene.
