a strange night out: i saw an amazing show of mexican
wrestling, organized by the bozar museum. the greatest
costumes and the best acting in a long time! the video
gives you an image of the acrobatic skills of these men.

yellow

this week my grandparents came to take a look at my place.
now beautiful flowers cheer up my breakfast table.

the book is by graphic designer Dooreman. The little blue one is a very small
image in the book but somehow i think it's the perfect book cover.

just a walk

in an attempt to take another road than usually
i ended up in another world.

scarf

look what beautiful scarfs ilse Acke makes. i always wear
a scarf, don't know if it's necessary for my outfits,
but i feel so naked and cold without.

secrets and habits

Now Anna from Today Illustrated tagged me
with the kreative blog award, i have to tell you:
i'm an A-team-fan, i could eat fries with hot curry
sauce everyday (even in the morning), i bite my
nails, i'm scared of losing my memory, i can't keep
an ivy plant alive, i met my boyfriend on the platform
for the train to Paris, i can't walk on high heels,
i talk in my sleep, i'd like to have tapdancing-skills.
Anyone shares any of those with me?

blue shop

souvenirs from my visit to Mieke Willems.
wondering what will happen with the beautiful
blue shop and the two girls who owned it for a while.

crow

today i discovered belgian jewelry by heidewinne.

heartbeats

in leuven you can visit this artwork by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer.
i've walked past it a few times last week, only now
i read in the newspaper what it represented:

'Each time someone touches the interface a heart pattern is
recorded and this is sent to the first bulb in the grid,
pushing ahead all the existing recordings. At any given time
the installation shows the recordings from the most recent
participants.'

in my neighborhood

this amazing building is right around my corner.
i never knew what was behind these windows.
now i am amazed. it will be renovated soon,
hope they keep most of the original elements.
