24 hours

Alina and Children of Vision at Mystetkyi Arsenal, Kiev, Sept 2018

Only 24 hours before this photo was taken the image behind me was just a black and white A4 photocopy stuck to the wall.

Creating a wall size piece was a spontaneous experimental idea that came to us just a few days before the opening. An unstoppable young curator miraculously brought it to life in a way that can only be described as superhuman.

And here I am chilling just before the press launch and the festival opening in plenty of time, as if this 5x7 meter photograph has always been there.

It meant so much to me to add this latest image to the show as what's the fun in exhibiting the same stuff over and over again?!
