“I confess, I do not believe in time.”
Vladimr Nabokov
Vladimir Nabokov: “I confess I do not believe in time. I like to fold my magic carpet, after use, in such a way as to superimpose one part of the pattern upon another. Let visitors trip. And the highest enjoyment of timelessness – in a landscape selected at random – is when I stand among rare butterflies and their food plants. This is ecstasy, and behind the ecstasy is something else, which is hard to explain. It is like a momentary vacuum into which rushes all that I love. A sense of oneness with sun and stone. A thrill of gratitude to whom it may concern – to the contrapuntal genius of human fate or to tender ghosts humoring a lucky mortal.”

I want to introduce you to Annekatrin, Lisa & Ana the paper dolls I was playing with at my childhood. I discovered these toys in a drawer at my parent’s summer house. While opening the boxes so many memories came back to me… I could remember perfectly all their outfits and looks. The funny thing is that I did not know about the existence of these dolls anymore, but if you look at some of my artwork they must have been somehow present in my subconscious…
