”Dear sister,
this letter has been written in Vienna, where i ended up not to find the treasure at the end of rainbow, but to stare black shapes of winter flowers leaning each other in the visual silence of the dark garden. This nite i cant sleep, tough I may not say, that I would be awake eather.

Ive been silent for two months without speaking the local language, living a life of an all-time moving object. Everybody knows im not originally from here, and my real future will be somewhere else. My body is seen as Polish, British, Swedish or German. This way given, is a path filled with freedom, freshness and existentialistic presence, but also prejustices, stereotypes and ignorance.

Without a real history or a future with the place situated, the human relations shall value the days lived. From these relations you may mirror your special character, but how is this feedback received, when the fact is, that your roots are here unknown, your origin is seen more as a Stranger than as a woman coming from real life lived in Finalnd.

Instead of talking how things are in ”your reality” or in ”my world”, we may try to share experience of ”a third space”. Instead of speaking the values differently measured, we could spend a moment by touching the hairy surface of a giant lily, that exists as a still substance in her dark position during this nite. The lily delivering instant sensation to the skin introduced, without knowing about sharings or splittings, just appearing as the same, in some way very much the same.
with love, Joanna”
