Fabula rasa
In the ice of solitude man becomes
most inexorably
a question to himself.
Martin Buber
This performance is inspired by the book, Fabula Rasa, the last work of the post-war poet and novelist Edward Stachura who took his own life in 1979. Born and raised in France, before resettling in Poland, he spent his adult life writing poetry and prose, and restlessly wandering the world, a stranger, a tramp, a vagabond, a mystic, a misfit, an exile who suffered from both ecstatic visions and terrifying hallucinations. In his forward to Fabula Rasa he wrote “This book is a description of something that is. That something is the immortally living life. You can discover it if you don’t get stuck on words... If you get lost farther, beyond the word, beyond the grave.”
