A journey through the world of fairy tales and games that aims to reawaken something hidden deep within all of us: our childhood.
What excites me about this project is the metaphor. It opens up the possibility of touching the unconscious behind a game and a fairy tale; not from the point of view of fleeting fun or a quick, happy ending. What really matters is what happens in between. As we explore ourselves and others, we venture into life and often face challenges and difficulties. In doing so, we have to leave safe havens and dare to venture out, overcome constricting needs and find our true selves. An inner change should take place and the “Bad” is defeated.
Without words, but through pictures that do not want to be illustrations of games or fairy tales, but show different ways in metaphors or stories behind the stories, they want to bring back into our consciousness that deeply hidden part that still lives in us; both to regain a young, confident look and to understand that difficulties lead us to overcome levels to reach what is our kingdom: our selves.
