Donor of digital item: Jasmina Stančić*

Note from Donor:

There was once a blue duck with which my son played as a little boy – a baby, with his hands, playfully hitting the water, creating foam as he tried to break apart the doll. The fragrance of children’s shampoo, the cloud of foam in the warm bathroom, and his laughter – it seemed that time stood still and the entire universe was centred around that toy.
