The work is based on two of my photographs taken during my stay in Sarajevo, in connection with an exhibition in one of the largest nuclear bunkers in Europe, built during the time of Tito. The facility currently functions in two parts—as a military unit and as a space for an art collection and exhibitions. Traces of the Siege of Sarajevo were still visible on the buildings, a full twenty years after the Yugoslav wars.
