Dance, Dance, Dance

The two last days I have been helping Claudia, who I work for, to make an artistic fashion video for her new collection.
It has been fun, hard work and a lot of waiting time, and I can't wait to see the result. Here is some backstage pictures.

Entdecken Alt Und Neu!

Although London was gray and Berlin this morning is sunny, I almost asked the pilot to turn around last night when he announced the it was minus 14 degrees in Berlin. I could use a couple of more day with 10 degrees, wearing an open jacket and gloves instead of mittens. Although I have been in London a few times before, the last being 8 years ago, it was like experiencing a new city.
I lived quite near Portobello road and Hide Park
In this very cute little hotel

With a nice view from my room, and a squirrel looking in at me the last morning there.

Sunday afternoon I went to Tate modern
And saw some nice art.
These are some of my favorites

 I walked so much

 But also took the Tube of course.

On Monday I had to go to the school, and most of the day I spent waiting. So I decided to eat my lunch in a very tiny park nearby.

And after I was done there, I took the bus all the way through London. From the front row in the bus. Being in London before I have to admit this was the first bus drive for me. Here I am looking down on all the busy people at Oxford circus.

Monday I meet with Angie for a tee. In a very nice tee house in Camden Town.

And later I went for a walk in Saint James park, going towards the bus station. Here it was getting spring.

And I saw branches in my favorite color.

London baby!

I didn't really plan on traveling more this winter, but Monday night I got some good news. I have to go to London on Sunday to present my portfolio on Monday. And I am super exited, but also a bit stressed. It is 8 years since I was last there, so I am sure the city changed a lot, and luckily I will also have time to rediscover.

Frühling ist unterwegs!

Today I saw the first sign of spring!

Beautiful Pictures!

Yesterday when we were at the Berlinische Galleri I fell in love with these Polaroid pictures by photographer Arno Fischer, and had to buy this book which contained the whole amazing collection.

Traveling Through!

Yesterday I went out with Helle who was in town for a few days. I have to say I think it has been the most cultural day I have had since I came to Berlin.
We started the day drinking a good coffee.

The first we went to KW who had an exhibition of an Israeli artist, only containing white elements. After that we went to Hamburger Bahnhof, where we saw a really weird installation called SOMA about agriculture, frozen mushrooms and deers. But we also saw some really nice pieces from the permanent collection.
After we went to Berlinische Galerie where there were mostly photography, and at last we went to a pop-up store by the French/German artistcommunity Bless. Who had a shop in an apartment where someone was living.
So at the end of the night when we sat down for dinner, we had so many impressions to digest.

Listen to Das Keiner Ensemble!

So finally we were able to create something digital out of one of our shows. I don't know if it will make much sense to listen to it without the movie, which was "Nanook of the north", however it works as nice background music, as I am writing this.

Blackout!

Monday when I turned on my bedside lamp the bulb leaped. I thought it was just the bulb, but turned out it was actually the whole lamp that was broke. So i needed to figure out what to do.
I really didn't want to get rid of the lamp cause my aunt made it from clay a long time ago, so I wrapped fairy lights around it instead. And it makes a really intimate atmosphere so I think I will keep it for a while.

Mustard Yellow!

In Israel I bought this wonderful jersey fabric in my favorite yellow color, and now I have finally made this cute dress with leather inserts at the shoulder. I can't wait for spring to come so I can wear it all the time.
