Yuliana Pineda: “This artwork portrays how life might turn a little withered when flying away from home: The storm comes and shakes everything around, but as it clears off, the rainbow emerges, the flowers grow, and the forest exudes its magic”
Natalia Polanska: “Hi my name is Natalia. I was born in Bratislava, Slovakia but after I finished secondary school of art at the age of 18 I moved to London. I’ve lived there for 15 years and absolutely loved it. It’s an amazing diverse city full of colours, Interesting people, art and different art exhibitions, parties and workshops. I love art because it gives you a chance to express yourself and be free. Freedom was always so important to me. I am so glad I can be part of this exciting project mostly because it is such a diverse group of beautiful people. I believe we should be supporting one another and lifting each other up. Through art people connect together. It is a powerful tool because it allows us to express our feelings and thoughts.”
„FRUIT, SEEDS“
„fruit, seeds“ is a multimedia group exhibition by which the artists intentionally locate and expose themselves and their works in the between, the “still fi guring out” and the (un)becoming – a process which requires constant watering, so as to reap what is sown.
curated by: Tonica Hunter
“fruit, seeds” takes place in the framework of the Avalon Mentoring programme, which brings together emerging young artists with established artists and mentors in the cities of Vienna and Bratislava. AVALON is an Erasmus+ Project that Fremde werden Freunde is implementing together with the Bratislava Policy Institute.
