The Journey XII

For the 12th part of ''The Journey'', I hired a theater for a night, and took characters from previous videos onto stage.

The Journey XII - One Woman Show

''I spent the entire summer of 2023 planning this one.
These past few months have felt like being in a creative vacuum. Mentally, i never left my cave. Day and night I was in my zone, working on concepts, and ideas. One of those times where you completely have to detach yourself from the outside world so you can really go within.

I loved the creation process and making of this. Prior to shooting I spent a lot of time studying the Weeknd and his artistry, trying to understand the way he approaches his craft, which really reminds me strongly of MJ, Queen, Prince etc
I love people who do intense shit.

Sometimes you dont know who you are because you are so much and nothing at the same time
Sometimes you dont know what you want because your heart is in so many different places at once.
This is a letter to my(past)self. Accepting the past and its mistakes and coming to terms with all of it.
Accepting past beliefs and past hurts.
The last few years have been tumultulous to say the least.
We shed skin every single day though, whether we realize it or not. But we must shed skin to find the light. You gotta go through all the stages in order to be able to close the cycle. Embrace that light even though it may blind others.

I love reinventing myself, especially within my art.
Welcome to my universe, my mind, and my artistry.

I am incredibly grateful that I get to do stuff like this now and bring into life what is harboring inside of my chaotic mind. Biggest thank you to beautiful Diandra, who let me film in her amazing theater.
And of course, as always, thank you to Alexander Dohmen for blessing my ideas with his own creative twist.''
