This exhibition is a result of a Sea-Land project – my attempt to team up with my friend and map out some curious names of UK towns and try to figure out related visual associations. We had fun with my friend and I really loved exhibiting in this lovely barn in Appleton, nr. Oxford. I sold a picture, which was a great feeling, but I am mostly proud of our crazy idea. We hope to visit some of those places too!

You can see the collection over on Flickr.

I really loved experiencing the 5 am wake-up in Wantage, carrying the pictures to the stall provided by the Oxford Castle team, setting it all up and spending all day talking to people visiting us. Oh, what a location! What a feedback! Really loved it! Works are all over on Flickr. 

This was my first exhibition and I cannot really express just how emotional it was! A lot has changed in my life – I have separated from the person who co-hosted this show with me so you can just imagine how hard it was to see it all through.

All I could think off was my son – I want him to be proud of me one day. With this little act of courage, I can now openly say that a new phase of my life has just begun. New life. New me. A new take on my photography. I opened up and people really enjoyed it.

Thank you to all my guests for visiting the show and thank you for all your lovely feedback!
