Nana Fata


In celebration of the capture of the evil monster, Radovan Karadzic, I decided to put up a piece from a few years back. I made a miniature series of women who had taken their own lives. I know it sounds morbid but some of the stories were pretty fascinating. Some dear friends of mine from Bosnia told me the story of Nana Fata. She was an elderly lady (approx. 65) from Dobrinja, Bosnia who the Cetniks attempted to capture and take to a concentration camp. To stop the capture she threw a grenade killing many Cetniks and herself in the process. My little picture of Nana Fata lives in Bosnia now...where she should be.
