suitcases.
Since childhood, I have been fascinated by containers of every sort and shape. Once I reached adulthood, I started travelling and moved to live in other countries. Suitcases have been a powerful metaphor for me ever since and I explored them multiple times. I collect them, I love them, I place inside them my dreams, desires, hopes, fears, joys and sadness.
A particularly well known and documented suitcase art I created is my PhD thesis. I Include images below yet if you wish to learn more, please peruse the exhibitions page.
