S P a C E

Do you...sometimes in this great city of London feel surrounded?

London is endlessly crowded.
It's too busy to think and it overwhelms with the advertised splendid of its greatness.

Sometimes I need to take a deeper breath to find what I'm loosing.

I went to Poland and climbed a mountain. The air was frosty and the wind blew threw me.
I could hear my breath.
I could hear my thoughts.

Some things become

My grandmother




today I've finally printed pictures I took in Warszawa (capital of Poland)..my grandma Maria Downarowicz was just 14 when her Mum was taken to Oswiecim (Auschwitz) where she was killed later on.....

one of those balconies is the one from which my grandma saw her mother last time led by Nazi's into a truck..

..on the 01.08. which is a remembrance day on which 65 years ago after 5 years of Nazi ocupation and terror young people (mostly scouts) and the undergroud army decided to to fight back......My Grandmother and her two brothers joined the fight..she was the messanger passing the orders running betwean the flying bullets..she got shot in the knee... most of her friends were killed..when I think about the horror of those times I cant imagine it..it feels so distant and scary..and it was just 65 years ago!!!

the trip to Warszawa was extremally emotional..we were both crying outside and inside for those few days..and on the way back home my grandma said her fer well to the capital...not sure if she will ever be strong enough to go back again...

yesterday i didnt make it because i made smth else:

big steps forward:

1. before uni i went to study support and lovely lady Anna listened to my dissertation mess and by making some good comments she managed to help me. I feel a bit better and less stressed about it now...still have a presentation ahead tho.

2. We were helping Ed with Ruben, Olivia, Andre, Jessie, Bevan. It was a lot of fun but also I learned more about shooting in a studio, setting the studio and building that shooting relationship with someone who is not a professional model. We got introduced to some important people... and hopefully we got some good shots.

After..drinkidrinki :)
