The stories of the people behind the art: Violeta Fijal #17
What is art? For me it is being fully myself. Art is my love for nature, for paper, for drawings.

Never have I listened to more music than right now.

{The Falls}
While clothes are a struggle, they are only a small facet of the problem. What I’ve alluded to and joked about is that boobs, particularly large boobs, become your identifier and in many cases what you are reduced to.

Redefining Freedom
We are in competition with invisible entities. Having outlets like social media can at times trap us in cycles of likes, stalking or just mindless searching—for nothing. Literally nothing. We’ve all been there. I’ve been there. Finding freedom is about re-learning how to enjoy a moment that went from day to night without feeling you missed out on an unknown that wasn’t a part of that moment.⠀
An Alternate Reality

If only had you just looked up once, I wouldn’t have to call you stranger anymore and we would then be both stuck in this loop of blissful ignorance until the cosmos tore us apart.

A Case for the Floral Dress: A Blossoms’ Ode to a Lost Summer
When there is so much convulsion and change in the air, the compulsion to think about space, the possibility of occupying it freely — no mask, just sun — the floral dress stands in as a commitment to providing a morale boost, an insouciance sensibility, an optimistic, laid-back attitude, perhaps?
Youth is Wasted on the Young
Over the next weeks, my life was busy, stressful and full of the tedious responsibilities of being an adult. I didn’t open my notebook back to that page where I had quickly scribbled “youth is wasted on the young”, but more often than not, the quote would appear when I closed my eyes, as I drifted off to sleep.
