The collection is based on my experience of growing up in the concrete housing blocks of 1990s New Belgrade in socialist Yugoslavia. The brutalist architecture combined with the residues of war stands in contrast with a somewhat utopian serenity of the place. But regardless of their grim reputation, I’ve always found the blocks to be a source of inspiration, a space of freedom. The character of Charlie is an offspring of the blocks, a post-humanist super female catapulted into her own vision of an unknown future, stepping into the brave new worlds we are yet to encounter.
