A Word That Doesn't Exist・存在しない言葉

The iris of night and the ivy of day, sealed with pomegranate seeds, forever intertwined with the structure of poison of which all we know resides. Put into motion by identities of glass wrapped around us in nets of silence.

Finding myself is fusing every part of myself together, sitting with each version, bonding as friends do. The energetic connection is the magic in rawness.

  

Discernment of Redemption

Figuring out what makes us who we are is a whirlwind of labels cast onto us by strangers and contradictions of our truth, consistently morphing as we grow. Our peace is found in lifting the fog that overshadows our authenticity, becoming one with the fluidity of experience.

Intangible Stability

As we walk through life carrying more weight with each step, our dreams get folded in the packs and the golden breadcrumbs appear further and further apart. The question of your unknown purpose that begs to be answered resonates louder, the chill of doubt creeping through your bones. Your reality inflated by anxiety seeps into your eyes, burning through every nerve in your body. The snapshot of this moment replays, forever gaining momentum in stillness.

Taking Time

I have been working for the past 3 years on a documentary project with an afro Mexican community , in Mexico . The project is about femininity in all it’s aspects , also related through the women I met - to my own history , and the relationship to my mother . 

In 2019 I got into a photo book production lab , here in Mexico City , called Hydra+fotografia which is a gallery and book publisher , and I could work towards making a photobook from this long therm project . The corona Virus epidemic got in when I was at the end of a 1 year lab journey , and couldn’t finish the process . Publishing a photo book is very expensive and I was working towards producing a serie of dummies to send to festivals and be able to find a co - publisher to work with Hydra + fotografia ( my mexican publisher ) . In the meantime of covid 19 madness I also lost my online job , as my client who was in switzerland , lost his . 

I would be delighted to receive this founding as so I could produce a few dummies and pay for my last session at the lab . 

HOJA SANTA 
(2017 - 2020)

PHOTOGRAPHIC PROJECT by Maciejka Alicja Art 

Hoja Santa is a herb largely used in traditional medicine and kitchen in Costa Chica****, Oaxaca. 

I met Juliana on a dinner in a friend’s house in Oaxaca city and we decided to collaborate on a project about women in the costa chica, in her afro community . I had been visiting Juliana and her daughter and living with her family for more then a year, in Jose Maria Morelos. I have learned about local tradition and all the aspects of the women society in such a difficult and isolated area of Mexico . I met local healers and midwifes, but also “queridas” ( mistresses) , abandoned women, widows, single mothers or mothers of many children .
The initial project about women became my own journey, like the shadow line , into the origin , the womb , and back . I found many parallels with my own life and female relationships and suffering , as long as features of feminism and proudness, submerging myself in the essence of motherhood and womanhood , with it’s shadows and limitations in all it’s aspects - into the womb of mama Africa and back. Every person I met , is a character in the journey .
I used mixed media collages and painted photographs to describe aspects of that spell , I can’t photograph but I can feel .
The project is still ongoing after 3 years and quiet wide . It has various layers of reading , through the anthropologic tale about the afro Mexican villages, the syncretism of the catholic and afro culture; its’ women who are tough workers and support the local society , and who also live quiet separated from man due to the history of violence of the place ; the traditional medicine and healing technique such as “espanto”(soul retrieval)*** or empacho**** “emotional digestion healing” for example
Currently the projects is being in the process of transformation into a book, with the Mexican editorial from Cdmx , Hydra + Fotografia .

Gathering together the poetry that I've written in different places, different cities. I loved living between London and Berlin, I love moving in and out. It feels very present and feels very intense and feels very romantic.

Morning / Poetry and Visuals / From my Story

Reverie Unspoken, is intentionally soliloquized; a deliberate act of escapism. It's the poetry of absence, a daydream, recalling moments, when the walls of our restrainment, have evanesced, leaving our souls free to sail amidst the clouds. At last, it's the candle flame, giving light, as it flickers to the soft reverberations of black and white keys...

through Humankind's incompatibility to Nature, we've devised a new World, incompatible to us... and stand witness, as the Serpent we've created, devours it's own tail..
