Description of action

Image 1 „lead us not into temptation“, Ustka

On the wall the sentence „nie wódź nas na pokuszenie“ is written from cardborad letters. On the floor a rose bloom is laying. I enter the room and with a cord string I bind the letters on my head. When all letters are bounded around my head, I turn around and place my feets there where the rose bloom is laying. Out of my trouserpocket I take 28 pencils, which I break one after another over my right knee. The pencils falls to the ground and my right foot hits exactly the rose. In a rhythm pencils breaking and my foot hits the rose bloom. At the end the rose is only a red mark. I leave the room.

At the wall the sentence „i odpuść nam nasze winy“ is written from cardborad letters. On the floor a rose bloom is laying. With a cord string I bind the letters on my head. A bucket, filled with milk is standing in front of the wall, not far lies a bunch with red roses on the ground. I enter the place take up the roses of the ground and place myself before the wall with the sentence, wait one moment and put them back. With a cord string I bind the letters on my head. With the cardbord letters on my head I take the roses of the ground and go to the wall. I stroke the wall with the roses and increase gradually the speed, until I strike the roses with full force against the wall. Only the ripped pieces remains. I take the bucket with milk and pour the milk against the wall and leave the place.

At the wall the sentence „chleba naszego powszedniego daj nam dzisiaj“ is written from cardborad letters. On the ground two large loaves of bread and a metal bowl with matches is laying. I enter the place and with a cord string I bind the letters on my head. This time I leave four letters untouched: A, M, E, N. I kneel down to the bread on the floor and holow the breads out, take off my shoes and the bread loves on as shoes. I go back to the wall, take the letter A, crush it and put it into the metal bowl. Then the letters M, E and N follow. with a match I ignite the letters. I turn back to the wall. While the letters burn, I hit my letter head against the wall. After a while I stop, and leave lurching the place.
