Cave Life – Janzog
Part 7
In a remote cave, Sidbaza Ganzog, a Mongolian performance artist, creates shaped faces and baked goods out of flour, each with a different personality. In this way, Áj Hiv creates an artistic and intellectual relationship with the ancient practice of yurt society. Áj Hiv means a family living in a house, a small community, and the emphasis in cave life is on the word together. They do everything together, in a division of labour, according to their role in the small community. Bedouins are keen observers of current social processes, and decisions should be made only after careful observation and study. This is the attitude, and this is the way of life we must adopt in dealing kindly and comprehensively with rapidly evolving social problems.
