She Sat With Many Strangers, But When This Man Shows Up I Got Goosebumps

May 28, 2015

Artist Marina Abramovic was doing a live performance that consisted of spending one minute of silence with a complete stranger. Many people show up, but her response to one person in particular gave me goosebumps.

At the 1:30 mark, Ulay, her former lover for many years, sits down across from her. Marina and Ulay broke up more than 30 years ago and this is the first time they see each other again.

It was emotional and shocking for her, and as you can see, she tries to carry on in the end, but seems almost unable to.
