Dear fellow readers,
After quite a long period of heavy thinking whether I should move into a co-working space or not, I decided to give it a try. I was not sure whether I would really have the time to use the space as often as I would like to next to my PhD. However, it is just a bit of money for the monthly rent that I need to invest and in the end I have more to gain: e.g. getting to know new people, learning from professional artists, a space that fits my needs and that I have access to whenever I need it. So beginning of October I organized a table from ebay, took an old office chair from our basement and my art materials and moved into the new shared studio space.
The studio has this Berlin rear building atmosphere with bricks visible under the torn-down plaster on the walls and creaking boards on the floor. Just like you would imagine it to be. I appreciate that I don’t need to worry about paint dripping on the floor.
I am looking forward to many productive hours in my new studio space! By the way, the fox you see on the wall of the building was created by my studio colleague “Dared” who is a street artist. Check out his website to learn more about his work!
