Desire knows no bounds |

Long story short, "Marina Abromovic and Ulay started an intense love story in the 70s, performing art out of the van they lived in. When they felt the relationship had run its course, they decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting for one last big hug in the middle and never seeing each other again.
At her 2010 MoMa retrospective Marina performed 'The Artist Is Present' as part of the show, where she shared a minute of silence with each stranger who sat in front of her. Ulay arrived without her knowing and this is what happened."

From the movie:
Ulay: By the time we met, there was immediately a fascination, type-wise, character-wise, personality-wise, the work we had been doing singly, she and me... Destiny brought us together.
Marina: I really loved him, I mean loved him like more than myself. For me, it was when we start working together, it was forever... I was thinking it would never stops. It was like twins, connected with a body together, and soul.
Ulay: We were lovers, we were friends, we were performers, all I wanted. And our love, was on the top of it.
