60 min' performance Dance & Live music Premiered November 2015 , Warehouse 2, Jaffa Port, Israel
Movement and live music translated into a live event based upon audience interaction.
Anat's new creation is dealing with what is the evolution of our memories ? Can we really choose what influences will stay with us? Can we really ignore the imprints of life and history? Can we remove them? Do we have free choice?
Exploring the explosive material of our personal history and how it evolves into our personality.
It is an invitation to have an effect and design the performance through the performer by engraving/stamping/imprinting her body with words and thoughts that have a direct influence on the way the performer will move and appear. What will stay and how will it affect her? What will be erased and what will have a new meaning?

Jerusalem Post: "Take a Memo"
"…Grigorio's new creation takes the audience on a journey of personal memory that is jarring and relevant… she not only shows the best of her abilities as a performer but also challenges the audience to be actively involved…" --Zvi Goren
"Grigorio, like Marina Abramovich, provided voluntarily the bleeding heart of the work, the opportunity to examine relations between artist and viewer and the potential limits for violence that exist in this freedom…" --Ora Brafman
