Castles In The Air

"Sometimes, I need to escape real life. There are no moments on my own as a mother of three. I feel the desperation of my kids to make eye contact all the time. I don’t want to, so, I turn off. Suddenly, I’m immerse in my dreams. The time goes slower, the rustle of leaves in the wind fills the ears. It’s all illogical, inconsistent, irrational. They are there, but they are also not. This dubious feeling dwells in me. The characters are strong. They defy gravity, the senses and their age. They show me they are stronger than myself, but they are also part of me – they came from my body and are present in my mind. I find myself trapped, admiring these images and wanting to reach them. They are wild and free, although surrounded by sorrow and darkness. They are complex souls living in childish bodies. They are expanding and, in my dreams, they go further." Castles In The Air is an ongoing project about motherhood, about love, fear, unrealistic dreams, full of textures, suspended movement, crooked bodies and melancholic places.
