ALMOST THERE & THE URBAN YOGA NY

Hi there, dear friends of The Urban Yoga!

How have your holidays been so far? Seems like you are having a blast, going here and there and everywhere, haha. I am happy for you. Enjoy life, it is one of a kind.

By having the campaign during the most vibrant time of the year, I got to observe it from another perspective. By focusing my energy on bringing The UY Photo Book to life, I had no choice, but to surrendered to all the festive hustle and bustle around me. Thus, without knowing I embraced the essence of this season like never before. I love how life gives you presents when you least expect them. Thank you for your presents in the shapes of emails, sharing your excitement on The UY pdf. That was really inspiring. Thank you for believing so strongly in our project that so many of you begun to increase your pledges in our final days! This really helped in boosting the project. It is so rewarding to see that all of you really want this beautiful book to get out there.

I believe more than ever, that together we can raise the awareness towards cities that are designed with our sensuous body mind. Our body that subconsciously measures and imitates spatial configuration and as such defines most if we feel good in our living environment. We can encourage urban citizens to surrender to what they smell, touch, taste, see and hear – to experience how does their city feel. Ever more people are convinced that the urban environment limits our freedom, causes stress and keeps us constantly alert. But as we all know now by focusing on the relationship btw. our body and the city we can experience urban spaces as places that spark our imagination, tell stories and nest our dreams. So share our message, reach out on your social media. We have 6 days left for this book to come to life and to contribute to a more positive life in the city.

You started to ask me questions as to which images you will be available to choose from for your prints. Bellow, I am revealing The UY New York series and in the next days I will present Madrid, Paris and Ljubljana. The UY NYC series was made in August 2013, photographed by Jaka Vinšek. Which one is your favorite?

We are almost there. Let’s start a new year by contributing to a more positive life in the city! Together. Wishing you a happy celebration tomorrow.
