Living monument (Bosnian: Živi spomenik, Serbian: Живи споменик ) is a performance of the activists of the Association for Social Research and Communications in building a better society, but also acceptance of responsibility and solidarity for the crimes committed in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also in the former Yugoslavia.
Living monument is Edvin Kanka Cudic’s idea of dealing with the past marking the anniversary of the crime, “disturbing” and recalling, so the public condemn the crime. In this way, the crime is visible in public, activists build monument with their body and show that the monument is built by the human body and thinking about the crime.
Living monument builds up in front of the Sacret Heart Cathedral in Sarajevo. Besides Sarajevo, UDIK built Living monument in other cities and towns, such as Ahmici Banja Luka Belgrade, Bijeljina, Brcko,Višegrad, Zagreb, Priboj, Prijepolje, Srebrenica, Tuzla, Foca and others.
