MARIANBOO / Who is she?

Status: "unemplyed" (not for long)

I was just tying my shoelaces when I raised my head and saw this 'tiny tiny gallery'...

 

 

Florentin st. 18: "Ah cool, Marianboo", i don't see too much of her work around town. She's probably a student or something... once in a while, on a wall or at a group exhibition like on the 7th floor of the central bus station. I see her pieces.

 she's direct when she says she's unemployed but it means she's a freelancer :-)... and she found an original spot in the heart of florentine (district) to set her 'Tiny tiny gallery'...

 right here, it's a booth, some corner of an imaginary room maybe?

 

A collection of beautiful and simple illustrations framed in cardboards hanging on a wall, (with their cold price right beside).

 

In this popular and young area, who can afford something that's about the average moshe's rent...? (*moshe is the israeli 'Joe')... ​but does she really care? she managed to get her own gallery on the street in a warm and crowded area. doesn't matter how much she will get from all that, she's making herself a name and that's priceless... 

so kol hakavod (*congratulations) 

 

check out her website, it's a fantastic story of illustrations, works, pouring imagination along with her 4 years in shenkar (*college of engineering and design). she must be in the top of her class... 

i ll look for the answer...

 

to be continued...

 

you should know:  she has a thing for litterature, i guess that's why she sticks book pages everywhere...
