Wax figure

Synopsis: 

In the summer of 2017, during the artistic travel of Vesna Mačković in New York, she started the project 'The wax figure of the Croatian artist in New York'. Vesna in New York performs a number of performances, and to travel with her art out of Croatia she decided because of the invisibility of her art in her homeland. As the backbone of her performance, she symbolically chooses a waxed figure because they are made only for "substantial and visible".
In various public places in New York, Vesna poses as a wax figure holding the inscription 'The wax figure of a Croatian artist in New York' in 20 languages ​​and a flag with a logo of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia. The passersby do not doubt the inscription and pose for the selfie-photos and Instagram with the so-called ‘'wax figure' of the Croatian artist.
Is the artist finally visible? Is the artist finally happy?
