I'm not the first to note that Marina was in the Australian outback region at the same time of the strange case of the "disappearing child" Azaria Chamberlain. Note the color of the child's dress - a dress which is bizarrely a collected piece in the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Note how often Marina appears dressed in red and black.
Abramovic and Ulay first came to Australia in 1979 for the 3rd Biennale of Sydney. Inspired by a brief trip to Central Australia, they returned in 1980 to spend five months in the Australian outback. Travelling between various Aboriginal communities, they spent long periods alone in the desert, much of the time sitting in the shade in silence, exhausted by the heat of the day."
"A dingo ate my baby!" is a cry attributed to Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton as part of the death of Azaria Chamberlain case in 1980, at Uluru in the Northern Territory, Australia. The Chamberlain family had been camping near the rock when their daughter was taken from their tent by a dingo. Prosecuting authorities rejected her story about a dingo as far-fetched, charging her with murder and securing convictions against her and, also, against her then-husband Michael Chamberlain as an accessory after the fact. After years of challenge in the courts, both parents were absolved of the crime and a coroner found Azaria's death was "the result of being attacked and taken by a dingo".
And kids don't just "disappear".
