A house / graffito / 2010 / a homage to Vlado Martek House , 1997

«The basic thought about existence of discource structure in which we live and which define us. If a word of a discourse or writng possesses an affect, the

possesses its effect. Performative account is the account by which a speaker expresses a certain action (of his own), and this action is completed with, and
caused by its expression. If we utilize Morris language theory, we can notice that performative accounts include, aside from syntax and semantics, at least a
segment of pragmatic ordinance. »
