A bush blooms, she blooms, a painting blooms, a chest of drawers blooms. She plants trees, helping in household is important to her. She ties her apron. She collects in her mind, in a basket, in a bowl, in her hands. About a girl who wanted to be big, wanted to "milk four cows and a fifth bull." The irony in the song is essential to me, the idea that I can't milk a bull. I relate it to my own life with my ideas about it. Who's a peasant woman? Gradually, I strip off the pieces of her clothing and get to the core of her being. Searching for the peasant woman, searching under the bed, in the tram, searching in my mind.
Spring, summer, autumn, winter. First, she leaves home and then she returns to it. I search for the ideal of the peasant woman, I find it and I lose it again.
