In conversation with .. 3!

What is your ultimate goal?
My grandma is 84 and is still doing her
ceramics. I also really hope to be doing
art forever, and to find new ways of
applying my creativity. I am really open
to collaborations and to incursionate
in new fields. I think life in general,
and therefore art, makes more sense
when you are sharing it with people
you love and admire. I would love to
do murals again, stage design sounds
super attractive to me, textile printing,
to work with furniture, fashion, makeup
maybe...? And of course, like every
creative person struggling with daily life,
I really hope to find the way of staying
true to myself and to my art while getting
out of it the financial income to live a
decent life.
How do you spend your days now with the quarantine?
I think all of us artist / designers / creators of some sort know how to
get busy at home and are used to be spending days without going out,
finishing projects and deadlines, anyway I think there is a different
mental challenge in this whole situation. I try to make yoga or dance
everyday, this makes me feel active and calms me at the same time. I
am using this time to wear my favorite outfits, I think I would go crazy
if I would just wear my pyjamas all the time... Looking good helps me
feel good. I had a problem with video calls, but I am rediscovering
them, this has a whole different value for all of us right now...the magic
of the internet! I am talking regularly with my family and friends all
over the world. I am lucky to share my place with my partner, we
are enjoying this weird time together. The only thing that is really
challenging right now, is the lack of sunlight in our place, but I try to
go for a walk regularly. And of course I am drawing everyday, art will
always save us!
How is this situation is affecting you, and your work?
In a weird way I feel more useful then ever in this crisis, I understand
