Safe space Series

Berliner for three years, David Bowie once said: “Berlin was the first time in years that I had felt a joy of life and a great feeling of release and healing”.  Like for Bowie, for many people of different nations and cultures Berlin became a Safe Space. It’s a place where you can be whatever you want, to hide in a crowd or to stand out loudly. It’s a city which is as diverse and amazing as space and universe itself.

I moved to Berlin two years ago and from the first moment this city wrapped its arms around me. I felt home immediately, though I’ve never been to Berlin before and my knowledge of German was close to zero. With this series of watercolors I want to capture the sense of belonging I experience here every day.
