Between September and December 2021, I drew a series of dreams with the support of the Neustart Kultur
Stipendienprogramm der Stiftung Kulturwerk der Bild-Kunst and published them on my Instagram account.
In January 2022, I showed some of the pages as a part of the exhibition "Are you awake?", a collaboration with Luka Lenzin in Frappant Galerie, Hamburg.
For the exhibition I produced the momochrome risozine "Der Frischkäse ist im 1. Stock" ("The cream cheese is on the 1st floor"), which contains a selection of the drawn dreams.

I am a participant in a workshop where you can try different disciplines like expressive dancing, drawing (...?). Today we present results. I am about 20 years older than everyone else.
You do the start.
The coach practised a solo dance with each of us.
But that was the day before yesterday and I completely forgot how my dance works.
I decide to "dance my current state of mind".
Tired. I am sooo tired.

Apart from enough money on the account and a soft bed, nothing interests me.

That was really bad. Absolutely uninteresting.
Well, I am just not a natural born dancer.
I think that the coach is to blame for my bad performance because he forced me to dance first.
At least, I want him to feel guilty.
