"Get Away"
The story of the picture is simple, and has a personal significance. It was created in 2006, where not everything was easy and about certain things I could only dream of. It has become a driving force for the imagination and bold changes. Get Away - in a simple and symbolic way, says what is most important to me: the freedom, the need to look for oneself and fulfill dreams that sometimes seem very distant, but thanks to the determination become possible.
