Babel

This Project is a body of work which I did in years between 2007 and 2011 when passing by and then living in Berlin. I gave it a working title "Babel" and never really felt that it is finished. It describes places, people and my life in this city, which seamed very decadent, beautiful and ugly at the same time. With subjective documentation of the reality of migrants I tried to answer some questions about myself, my own identity and home.  Using also archival family pictures from my own childhood I build sort of intimate diary - self portrait, showing my relationships with people. I collected material looking for my own place here, penetrating flats, clubs, music studios and parks with dealers, artists, trying to go in without skin and see what will happen. It is image of underground, kind of subconscious of the city, life without fulfilment, world of solitude, detachement, homelessness and poverty. Trying to be real, feel, be as close as possible, exist, live without compromises, using myself as a Laboratorium to experiment I rebuild the picture which society doesn't want to see.  I could experience this small miracles which life reveals sometimes in front of us. Every time you confront another person it is like looking in the mirror which describes you.
