Pinch of ...

photos and brooches by vikky.salmon

I leave the reality and enter the boundaries of imagination. Above, are my companions.

They are born there. They are not made of bones, muscles, nerves or ...

But inside, they are hiding away great heart.Just like us. Or not?

They are created from fabrics, threads, buttons and all that inanimate stuff. 

All that's necessary is a pinch of imagination. That's what brings them to life. 

I want to escape.

Realitu nechávam za dverami a cez prah vstupujem do sveta predstavivosti. Tam tí hore, to sú moji spolucestovatelia. Rodia sa tam. No neskladajú sa z kostí a svalov tak, ako my....

No majú veľké srdiečka. Tak ako my. Či?

Rodia sa z kúsočkov látok, nitiek, gombíkov a všetkého toho nehybného.

They are the best tools...

Nechýbalo veľa a rozdelila by som ich. Vytvorila bariéru medzi vodou a zemou.

Avšak, pravdupovediac, toto je to,o čo sa na tomto blogu jedná a ja si žijem niekde medzi. 

Medzi vlnami a hlinou, sčasti plávajúc a kráčajúc. Čľapkajúc sa v bahne. Niekde medzi dvoma svetmi, s úsmevom na perách, fascinovaná divným a čiarami, tým čo sa nepodarí a naťahujúc trenky náhode.

Uvidíme, kedy guma povolí. Ja však verím, že aj to bude mať svoje čaro.
