Places we love exist only in us is the opening sentence in a poem by Ivan V. Lalic. This video series is a project where I ask different people to tell their stories about belonging. Every episode contains 3 art workers of younger generations having creative control over how they want to be filmed, where, and what they want to speak about.

A period for contemplation and the opportunity to let go of what no longer serves. Like the way we pride ourselves, we no longer need to abide by Nature's rules.

Read MoreFinally, summer! Windows closed, curtains closed, hiding in the darkest corner of my room to preserve the last bits of sanity. Trying to cool down in this heat seems to be as efficient as explaining to people that being skinny is not always a choice. As being not skinny is not always a choice either.

Read More“In my opinion, empathy is an infinitely complex topic. if you deal with it, you immediately come up against hard pro and con positions. I was particularly interested in the question of how empathy affects socio-political courses and social interaction. This topic is also the basis of my new collection.
