Abstract

The paper focuses on the documentation of the performance Out of Water by the Polish performance artist Aurora Lubos. Out of Water is a straightforward and intense reflection of the artist's experience of her volunteer work in refugee camps. Reading Lubos's work through the prism of the Ettingerian matrixiality helps us see it as a brave and compassionate gesture of vulnerability in contemporary Poland with its rising xenophobia and nationalism.
