'So, what do you think about sex?' A conversation between Arca and MarinaAbramović.

ARCA: I had a dream about that once, where a part of me was so limp that it wasn’t moving. One part of me had to drag the other part around, like it was dead weight. Then I had a dream where finally I looked into that other me’s eyes with anger, trying to shake them awake. And in their eyes, there was so much sadness. I thought it was because they had given up. They were numb. But it was the opposite. It was that they had so much love in them that they didn’t even know how to move.

ABRAMOVIĆ: I call this “body drama.” It’s what happened to Elvis Presley in his last concert, when his body was completely wasted, fucked-up on drugs or whatever, and he could hardly stand on the stage but then the voice came, and the voice was divine. The voice and body didn’t relate to each other. But I don’t think you have body drama. You’re far away from that.

ABRAMOVIĆ: I’m not crazy about it. We’re connected with the trees and the birds and the rocks and the cosmos and the stars and the black holes and the universe and everything. We are little dots in this big puzzle. When I was a kid, I always imagined that humanity was in the heel of an old, fat lady and that she was just kicking us around.

ARCA: If the mind is responsible for something as amazing as having the idea to come up with a performance and then doing the performance, that’s cosmic, too.ARCA: When I think about sex, the first word I want to say is “libido,” because we tend to think of libido as erotic energy, but really, it’s a life force. Imagine how it moves our bodies to touch and collide with each other and mate and breed and love and fear. Art comes from it, too. Our sex drive and creativity are birthed from it.
