Story & Message:
The “real” thing can only be found in the world if you take action: search, compete, fight, conquer and test, can’t it? It never just “comes” to you, does it? The idea of “luck” and “destiny” are tricky ones, because we always want to be in control of our own fate. Yet, many things in life are not up to us to decide. A princess can just show up at your door long after you gave up all hope of finding your happiness. We often forget that absolute control makes surprises disappear. If you knew everything that would happen to you in advance, would you really want to live such a life?
From my project “Princess & the Pea”
“Princess and the Pea” is a “textbook” fairytale and like every fairy tale, it doesn’t make much sense and yet has lots of hidden meanings if you search for them. This series includes visual speculations and expansions on those possible meanings and morals. The danger of making assumptions, the big role that small things can play in life, being true to oneself, and never jumping to conclusions might be the important lessons found in the simple text for children if you’re willing to take in its wisdom.
Editions 1 of 1 are available in sizes:
50 x 50 cm (˜19.7" x 19.7")
70 x 70 cm (˜27.6" x 27.6")
100 x 100 cm (˜39.4" x 39.4")
