Corona, Prague and me.
Prague, 2020.

The video was taken on 27th of March and responds to the situation in the coronavirus era.

A half-empty city, calm and restlessness.
The main role is played by me. Me against the surroundings, me against the pandemic. 
The city is in chaos, yet I try not to be disturbed in any way. 
The chair I travel with deliberately defines my own space. 
The choice of locations is not random - they are chosen to be those that were crowded with people 
on a daily basis before the state of emergency was declared.
Calm and restless, a half-full city.
Surviving Dance.
Prague, Pilsen – B-Original Dance School, 2020-2021.

This set of documentary photographs was taken during the year 2020 until the spring of 2021.
Closed dance school, distance learning and limited contact with people.
Dance is about community, interaction, mutual energy... And this time has taken all that away from us dancers.
Halls overflowing with emptiness, communication only through the camera, zero enjoyment of the lesson.
Community without living, interaction without interaction.
My feelings from this time are captured in photographs that will hopefully be a mere memory for me.
Me as... Marina Abramovic.
Prague, 2020.

This experiment is inspired by the famous Serbian artist Marina Abramovic and her 2010 performance The Artist is Present.

2 people, sitting opposite each other with continuous eye contact for several minutes and without any
words used, do not know each other. In this moment our body language replaces classical verbal communication. 
One can read an incredible amount from mere facial expressions - nervousness, boredom, dominance, interest... 
Non-verbal communication supports verbal expression... but what if there is no verbal expression?
Early adults.
Prague, 2021.

Young but adult.
In today's world, young girls want to look grown-up, and grown-up girls want to look young.
Paradoxes.
All three girls are 15.
The goal of the project was to turn them into the girls they want to be. 
Lots of make-up and the right choice of clothes works wonders.

Adult but young.
Place of Joy.
August, 2022.

Children's camp, unguarded playground and disgusted joy.
This set was photographed as part of a week 
with the children at a playground where they were not allowed to go.
They were allowed to choose the one attraction they wanted to go to the most. 
They were then photographed on that one.
My main condition though was that they were not allowed to smile for the camera at any cost.
SPRING/SUMMER 2023.
Object in space.
Prague, 2023. 

My exhibition is a selection of fashion artists who are also part of the dance street community.
They are creators, architects and designers of their own brand. Personal, original.
The name of the ensemble is not accidental. The environment in which the artists are captured plays a big role
in the overall idea of my work. 
The creators of the brand or models are in fact in an environment of their own. 
Whether it is the studio, nature or their room.
