Portal to the Hazy Place where if You stay long enough You’ve chosen to become it

The Hazy Place is a multimedia installation opening an entrance to another world.
Consisting of sculptures based on artists’ dreams, an immersive landscape where impossible becomes real emerges and invites the viewer in. Utilising the automatic techniques present during the surrealist movement, the beings and places from the artists’ dreams merge and transform, she invites you for a journey of bizarre and mystical sightseeing.
Taking a deeply private, subconscious world and presenting it publicly with openness to interpretation makes this space a vulnerable self-portrait and exists as a weird form of a post-diary. The artist gets lost inside herself and invites you to get lost in her too. Using escapism as a means of care in the world full of uncertainty and responsibilities, the Hazy Place functions as an oasis where one can forget and just observe and be.
