The summer of 2007: The Holiday That Never Happened.
I came home that summer to have an argument with my father, to find out about past secrets that I never wanted to know, to witness my dearest friend going through something traumatic, to listen to some more ignorant hateful trash on the streets of that country that I run away from but seem like always coming back to. My dear friends, locked into their mid thirties, the funny old age when you get pimples together with wrinkles. Our faces and bodies showing the first signs of all those parties, of all of those unfulfilled dreams. How could it ever be as good as you hoped it to be? I looked at the young girls and boys and thought of how lucky they are to have it all still in front of them, still not fully developed, they bodies and minds still growing, while ours are accelerating in the opposite direction.
I decided to do this blog to keep 'an eye' on what I am doing, or how I am doing. Before I start posting some new work, I wanted to show first what i have I worked on for the past year or so.
Locked into my thirties? No, after 30, my mind started to develop in opposite direction :-) Now, I feel and act like I am 27 (instead of 33)... The body is not following that path, but I dont mind, becaouse I feel great. Few more years, and I will probably be completely crazy, but even more happy and fullfiled. :-)

Great photos Dragana!! Some of us our starting to get locked into the 40s already:) I love your shots of people!
I never saw the "beginning" of your blog. In my experience parents don't like being confronted... past secrets are usually "family" secrets. I lost my entire family, except for my one sister, three years ago when i decided it was time to 'talk'. It's been the best three years of my life! :-)))
