Editorial: Odessa by Rut Navarro
Odessa by Rut Navarro
“One of my most unforgettable trips was to Ukraine, more specifically to Odessa. I felt so many things that I wanted to tr y to capture them in a collectio n, my only artistic way of expressing myself. Happiness, humanity, beauty, peace, were some of th e feelings that were emerging , also combined with not so positive things... I felt trapped and abando ned and with the feeling that I had learned somethi ng: sometimes the harsh reality forces us to start from scratch, to flourish again.
Just like in Chernobyl, where nature resurfaced fro m such a catastrophic event, Odessa made me laugh and cr y. And with a constant desire that ever y thing be filled with flowers. My head began to work sinc e I got off the plane, when I returned to my reality an d investigated how to treat hair to make it paper a nd turn it into beautiful flowers. Of course, focusing on the hair and betting on a natural beauty. The whole set is an ode to beauty and rising from t he ashes and creating better versions of ourselves. "
