In 2017 I was invited to join the project "Safari Here", which was Isabella Mongelly, Milos Tomić, and Maria Anastassiou initiative. It was a part of the Corners Festival happening in Gdańsk, Poland.
I was responsible for creating workshops for children, which would be documented and presented in a site-specific situation.
My goal was to get to know these kids and their habits. I asked them for two things:
- first one was to guide me through their unusual places where they hang out, what could help me understand more their way of spending time after school and the place where they live,
- and the second one was to try to see those places through their eyes by giving them plexiglass frames which would allow them to augment their reality by drawing and show me how do kids perceive the world around them.

We've had a wonderful time - I've discovered how talented those kids are in singing, dancing, etc.
