Nohami na zemi.

illustration by vikky.salmon

Stand still with both feet on the ground.

Head browsing the skies.

***

Nohami na zemi.

S hlavou v oblakoch.

Nielen smola sa lepí na päty.

Ale aj milé myšlienky.

Pale black

photograph by vikky.salmon

Black on black. It's just the pale skin of the Snowhite that shows. 

Enjoying a cup of tea.

***

Čierne na čiernom. Nie, to nás asi nikde nedostane. Len čierne na bielom.

Len snehulienkina biela tvár.

Popíja si čajík.

Všetko. 

Len toľko.

Jagavá straka zakrákala

Before and after

necklace by vikky.salmon

The glittering magpie, inside me, has spoken out loud.

She has been squating somewhere down there, in her nest, for a long, long time. Now she flew the nest.

If not for her, the shimmering lady, I would never learn the beauty of glitter. Brokat.

I thank you very much for everything.

***

Vo mne. 

Už dlho si tam niekde v hniezdečku sedkala. No teraz vyletela.

Keby niet jej, slečny jagavej, nenaučím sa kráse flitrov. Brokatu. 

Tejto osôbke vďačím za veľa.

Please listen/ Započúvaje sa.

From out of the office/ vol.2

photographs by vikky.salmon

Folders. Papers. 4 walls. 3 sketchbooks. Double window and a single desk underneath.

And me enclosed in this little space, migrating out of here, for a few moments.

Just a few more weeks to go.

Living like a cocoon within its own shelter.

***

Šanóny. Papiere. 4 steny. 3 skicáre. Dvojité okno a jediný stôl.

Sedím tu medzitým zavretá, na vlastnú vôľu. Keď chcem, vypadnem.

Už len pár týždňov.

Žijem si vo vlastnej škrupinke.

Špagetový démon: so sušenými paradajkami Obrážťok kaming sún.

 illlustration and photographs by vikky.salmon

A bit of fun in everyday things. The ordinary.

Spaghetty with sun dried tomatos. If you can't have basil on top, your imagination will 'photoshop' it in.

Missed doing this for a very long time.

***

Zábava v malých, každodenných veciach.

Špagety so sušenými paradajkami. A ak chýba bazalka (ak by aj bola, najskôr by tá burina skončila v koši), stačí si ju v mysli dolepiť. Alebo aj na papier. Lepiacou páskou.

Už mi to tu chýbalo.

BONUS: Neverím, že som popri tom počúvala toto.

It's pouring tears outside

I blast opened my window, in order to listen to the sound.

Okná dokorán a ja načúvam: dážď.

Pure li(n)es

drawing by vikky.salmon

inspired by a beautiful photograph of Pau's me&m brand I mentioned few weeks/months ago

You can lie through pure li(n)es.

It is the craft you get better at over time. With time you grow.

 ***

Chtiac či nechtiac, tak nejak to nejde pretlmočiť.

O tom, že linky vedia klamať. A linajkový klamár sa časom zlepšuje. Rastie. Avšak to chce čas.

A možno oklame raz aj sám seba.
