Winter 2021. My first ever stay in Berlin for long 3 months. As many said, it was the wrong time of the year to be in Berlin. I don’t know if it was the excitement of being in the city that didn’t judged me, or I needed to be at the right place to enjoy winters. Even though the biting winter was severe for my Mumbai tolerance levels. The warmth of the people I met, kept me going. Some acquaintances, some random. These interactions added colours, and warmth to the otherwise long lasting grey. Some Friday’s were the nude drawing sessions, organised by Daniel. An initiative that offered a comfortable and safe space to let the artistic souls blossom. This collection was developed drawing inspiration from the sketches and drawings from those sessions.
An ode to the acquaintances and strangers whose warmth I will value forever.
