Translation:

' I put this instalation on 9th of this month in a front of US embassy. I was watching pictures from Iraq and that how the victims of this war look. The art is partly subjective and comments which I heard were saying that people lost their minds and it (Iq war) is like little bit crazy...
I was more focused on making the obeisance towards those countries where casualties are the biggest. The title of inst. is 'Requiem'. I did not photographed the embassy cause I would be nicked. It was there for about 2,5h till the pressure from the Foreign Affairs Ministry occured. Later there was more and more of police coming and they started to press me to remove it. 'If it would be a banner it would not disturb them', and this 'mad some fears in people'. People form other embassis started to come out as well. And I have heard from one of the officers that I am troubling us-Polish relationships /Hurray! - comment/ (rather relationtships Bush-Kwasniewksi I would say). 'And this instaliation is sad as fuck'.
