Intro:

'War is a 'constitutive form of a new order' that no longer knows an 
inside or outside, [...] like so many other things these days, war too 
seems to be subject to a de- and re-regulation process that radically 
challenges old certainties and replaces them with new premises...'

I MYSELF AM WAR! is a project aiming to reflect the present geopolitics 
as well as cultural shifts that are as profound and evident in today's 
factual daily life within its multitude. In order to emphasize the 
intersections of cultural practices and the possibilities to link the 
representational politics in the way this space orientates a search for 
present and future production, I MYSELF AM WAR! puts cultural 
engagements to the fore in mapping out 'subject-positions' which set its 
cultural syntheses rooted in differential structures. This requires 
exploring alternative discursive space(s) towards accepting the 
difficult relationship between the present complex relational powers and 
monolithic interpretations of the present cultural conflictual zones 
beyond the failures of multicultural ideologies.

I MYSELF AM WAR! therefore attempts to introduce different layers to 
manifest a progressive approach to a critical engagement in a closely 
associated context concerning with facing the rupturing sense of a 
fundamentalistic outlook.
