„The Vow“
The Vow
to feel
all of me.
When I got lost
never stop searching
until I've found myself.
Contingency experience is something that can lead people to the brink of despair and darkness. We can admit to ourselves that we stumble, that we doubt, that we are weak. We can forget who we were, kill our old ego – as long as we don’t give up on ourselves. Not those who do not fall down, but those who get up again anyway, prove strength. Those who allow the old to be torn down are able to create new opportunities.
„Blood and Glitter“
Hush and touch
the tension of glamour
when glitter turns to blood.
Wear your pain like a crown.
Dare everything!
Bless your blood.
True beauty and true power comes from effort, pain and tears. Glamour and blood are more closely intertwined than we often want to admit to ourselves.

„Maria’s payers“
To those who wonder
To those who blindly believe.
There's no heaven above,
no healing through love,
no hell under
all this sorrow and grief.
Still, Christian church puts all its attention to a man who felt very self-assured to be the son of a god. Free willingly, he sacrificed himself, whilst believing to be reborn in Heaven. But who ever thinks about Maria? About a mother who had to watch her – very earthly – child dying? About a beloved one, who had no possiblilty to change this terrible decision, the young Jesus made for his very own? How would she have felt?
Who is losing more? The martyrs or their beloved ones, who are left behind with the never ending questioning „Would I have been able to chance it? Was it my fault?“
„All“
Once I dreamed.
Reaching the sun
to loose it all.
Unstoppable fall
ended where it had all begun.
Shattered.
„Sometimes everybody feels like beeing the Ikarus. Luck, trust and selfconfidence can lead us to high performances – and also let us take higher risk. But those who flew so high will fall even deeper and harder.“
Sarathustra shot the Ikarus-Project by climbing up a hill and bonding herself with a rope on a huge metall-construction, so she was able to hang freely 8m above the ground. The wings were boroughed by Fleurinna Wings. The Dress Sarathustra sew on her own, burning its fabric and cutting a hole near the waist so rope and climbing belt can get covered by the outfit. A tiny crew helped her to fix the rope and make sure that the camera is doing it’s job while Sarathustra was hanging upside-down into the air.
