Being – A self-portrait
“Living, there is no happiness in that. Living: carrying one’s painful self through the world.
But being, being is happiness. Being: Becoming a fountain, a fountain on which the universe falls like warm rain.”
(Milan Kundera, Immortality)

Emptiness
“There was an emptiness about the heart of life; an attic room.”
(Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway)
Self-portrait with the light
“To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face and to know it for what it is.
At last to know it, to love it for what it is, and then, to put it away.(…) Always, the hours.”
(Michael Cunningham, The Hours)
Unfathomably
“I miss you deeply, unfathomably, senselessly, terribly.”
(Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena)
Visual Artist
Inspired by poetry, art, life, imperfections, music, nature, dreams and antiques.
Believes that things should not be in small drawers inside large closets.
As we live our lives forwards, but understand them backwards (as Kierkegaard says).
