And then, these two Angels from London came in. Bought some prints and probably saved my life
This is a book project by illustrator Sophia Halamoda who has been traveling around the world for years. But instead of shells and key chains she brought back sentences as souvenirs. Its the little words "in-between" that this project is dedicated to. Things you say when you just opened up to a stranger and had a beer or two too much.

Since I have my "sentence box" and the "open-sign" on the street, people donate more than just a sentence to me.
They come in and tell me the whole story of their lives! Which is great, but let me make one thing clear: I CANNOT HELP YOU ESCAPING FROM PRISON! SO dear toothless, crazy-eyed, spitting and screaming italian who came in last wednesday: Sorry but I don´t know how you can skip your trial. If you read this, you can throw away now my hand-made business card that you took with you (Boohoo-it hurts)! -I am just a girl that wants to make a book?

Being totally hocked with the wedding of the century, I still managed to spent some time at my gallery and welcomed some very special V.I.P.s last week.
I´m proud to finally present to you the famous "Sandra" who is already hanging in a lot of german living rooms. The girl who said my best-selling sentence (very popular among girls). She is from Libanon, now she lives in New York.
Along with Sandra came my girls Emmet, Hester and Malu all the way from San Francisco and Amsterdam for our friends wedding.
Another lovely couple that showed up was Ann and Golo from THE BAKERY, the best freelancer Agency in Berlin!
I´ve been collecting some sentences during the wedding, being emotional AND drunk are the best conditions to be wise, more or less.. Btw, how do we look? :)

When I walk on the streets listening to music, I always fantasize about how I would look on stage, singing that song. Well unfortunately that dream will never come true, I am the most unmelodic person on the planet. Which is why it makes me extremely happy to surround myself with other artist, especially musicians who are able to express themselves trough tones.
Yesterday I got a visit from 3 very gifted artist who played an unplugged concert in my gallery.
Dan from England,Tom from Norway- who I met the other day and my dear friend Victoria who lives in Berlin. It makes my heart melt if all three of them sing together.
Check out their music.

DAY 2 @ THE GALLERY highlights
Two lovely ladies from switzerland buying some of my illustrations, a weird grandpa who wanted to know what "fucked up" means and a visit from dear Gabriele- a graphic recording colleague of mine who told me about her time in egypt and the arabic spring. I ended up closing the gallery at 7 instead of 6 (waiting boyfriend inclusive).
I have my friends DASEINSFREUDE and XH COLLECTIVE with me :)
THE VERNISSAGE
On a regular day, I hate the world and its citizens. But that day I was just in love with everything and everyone around me. I said it a few times on facebook, twitter and instagram and I say it one more time here: THANKS EVERYONE FOR COMING, I WAS AMAZED HOW MANY PEOPLE CAME TO SEE ME, SUCH A GREAT TIME!! Watch me work and develop my project further for the next 2 months until we tear it all apart at the Finissage! The Circus Hostel-ARTBOX-Weinbergweg 1a. Wed 4pm-7pm, fri and sat 3pm-6pm
