AFETY ZONE IS THE HUMAN NEED TO HAVE/ESTABLISH A ZONE OF SECURITY (PHYSICAL OR MENTAL), A SPACE IN WHICH TO FEEL SAFE, COMFORTABLE, AT HOME WHEN THE MIND CANNOT FOCUS, WAITING FOR UNEXPECTED INVADERS; WHEN, AT NIGHT, THE BODY CANNOT RELAX TWISTED IN READINESS TO GET UP AND RUN… SAFETY ZONE IS THE NEED TO HAVE/ESTABLISH A ZONE OF STABILITY, A PLATFORM OF DISCOURSE WHEN THE ACTUALITY OF THE PERSONAL, CULTURAL AND ARTISTIC MIND-SET IS CONSCIOUS IN TWO LANGUAGES, POLISH AND ENGLISH; WHEN THIS CONSCIOUSNESS CREATES UNPREDICTABLE MOMENTS DURING WHICH ONE IS NOT ABLE TO COMMUNICATE IN WORDS—A ‘SPACE’ BETWEEN LANGUAGES; WHEN THIS VOID NULLIFIES IDENTITY, AND PRODUCES A SENSE OF DISPLACEMENT, CONFUSION AND FEAR; WHEN IN THE PROCESS OF THINKING EACH LANGUAGE OCCURS/DISAPPEARS SPONTANEOUSLY AND INEXPLICABLY; WHEN NEW LANGUAGE PENETRATES INTO DISTANT MEMORIES, INTO OLDER LAYERS OF KNOWLEDGE, AND RESHAPES THEM; WHEN OLD LANGUAGE SLIPS AWAY AND CHANGES INTO INCORRECT, CRIPPLED FORMS….
