Youtube Video

In 2011, after one year of studying abroad in a foreign country, my mind was still searching in everything and everyone similarities with things and people surrounding me in Poland. I felt like a prisoner in my own world without true interpretation of the reality. Everything was changed: buildings, school, people, culture, language. In one moment I realized, that I am closing myself for outside world, focusing only on my studies. I grew as a student, but I did not grow as a human. The accruing loneliness in the exterior world changed into a passion which was nothing else as need of expression my inside emotion, as a need to express purity of the mind, which was needed to open for the surrounding world.
