CURRENT MISSION

to hear the quiet voice within

ABOUT ME

I'm a concept artist, uninterested in making beautiful things to hang on the wall but determined to change points of view. My work is more like philosophical or critical essays, carried out by means of performative interventions in public spaces.

I am calm and open, like meeting new people and having good discussions. I drink green tea and like eating cookies.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't believe in national cultures. I think people are united just because of their humanity: life experiences, professional interests, emotional drive... but not because of their familiar relationship, citizenship or local connections. People are only separated when they don't have an oppotunity to meet each other.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm organizing myself for a trip to Oswiecim where I will visit KZ Auschwitz.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have much experience. I had a good experience travelling in Paris (2009, 2016), Wroclaw (2016), Warsaw (2015, 2016), Lyon (2008), very often Berlin, Moscow. I'm excited to try couch surfing again.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

15 years ago I dreamed that I flew around in a cardboard box. It was a really great experience!
