This is ORIGINS, a poem I found the need to read at loud, even though you might have read it. You never heard it from the heart that sang it. Nor saw it through the soul that gave it life. This is a poem I wrote to express the idea of the need to go back to our element, somewhere that feels safe.                              My element is art, I love painting, it makes me feel grounded and happy. I get inspired by life and nature.  I feel myself when I paint, I feel like I'm truly connected to myself and my surroundings when I paint. I feel my body, my soul and my mind which is why it is so special to me, it can be so rewarding and refreshing.   If you have one, what's your element?   (Check out the last post illustrated by Evana  here )

Dear Mother, From the beginning, I knew the embrace between your arms shall be the place I call home. You cupped my hands and joined them to where it beats along the rhythm of life. You reunited the words that I keep on whispering every night : Love, Life and Art. Mama, some trees caught fire. I felt like I needed to go back to my roots, I needed to go back to the place I was born in as if something was missing. Like a baby, I’m running back to you, feeling disconnected, lost – and exhausted. You are the sun, pouring warmth and light. You energise me for your love remains the same : Strong, Patient and Tender. And you are the moon, you are watching me from above, among the stars always inspiring me. Going back to my element is like going back to the place I know I’m safe, a place of love, serendipity and inspiration. Back to my nature of origin, I learn all about feeling and touch again. A perception from the heart.  I am reborn. ...

I've been inspired by the psychedelic nature of my brain.

You are looking for me. You are looking at me, for me.  Me knows me is not where me has been lost.  Me is where everything is true. But me is her, me is there. Me is when you're not there. Me is alone. Me paints. Look. This is me. Pictures of me, playing around. But it shouldn't be so hard to see. Pictures of my soul, taken by A and directed by me...

What freedom is... This is the first post of a new theme entitled "What freedom is", I have already explained in my last post what my posts are going to consist of (click here to check it out). Vulnerability, honesty and freedom are ideas that i want explore through my creations. Fragility is especially an idea that I really wanted to express and discover through this process. What is fragility? What is vulnerability? What does it mean to be honest, capable of loving, capable of relying on people? This is basically what the following posts are going to be about : a vulnerability experimentation through art. Subscribe to my youtube channel  here  to watch more videos! Love, Mxx

That's it, we're in 2018! December went by and it's now time to share with you some snapshots of December. I really enjoy writing these kind of posts, taking pictures helps me to be more mindful and creative! I wanted to end this post with a collage I made, reuniting all my posts. I think it has been almost six months since I've made this website, how crazy is that? 6 months!!! To me, that's A LOT. I'm so glad that I started this blog because it allows me to create new content every week and come out with new ideas regularly. At first, I found weekly posts quite challenging but I slowly got used to it and I'm really happy about that! To be honest, I've never thought I'd be "blogging" a few years ago and here I am, typing those words... Thank you to those of you who read my posts and support me, it really means a lot to me! I wish you all a new year full of love, happiness and creativity! Lov...
