Cemre & Luisa

Luisa (lying):I feel safe when there’s no judgement, no envy, when there’s trust, support and a deep understanding. My safe space isn’t a place. My safe space is my Cemi. Cemre (sitting): Mutually, Luisa is my safe space. With her, I feel secure ...

My studio is also my safe space. The studio itself is part of my art. It’s constantly changing, adapting, and being readjusted. My safe space is part of my artistic output, and a prerequisite for it.

Christian

As a kid I liked to play „Island“ on sofas or armchairs, imagining the whole floor of the room as open sea. On the sofa I was unreachable, on my own, safe – ideally together with a friend and some tasty snacks. Today my bed is this safe space. At the end ...

Esther

The sofa is my favorite spot in our apartment. I sit there in the morning with a large cup of coffee and enjoy the slow start to the day. I love looking out the window, watching the clouds drift by or the pigeons on the roof across the street. Just ...

Raoul

The place could be anywhere. What I need is Bach or Brahms, or at least meaningful music. I actually prefer listening alone and at home, but the transition from mere perception to that moment when inside and outside dissolve and I feel like I’m ...

Ulrich

In our little wood, part of our garden, I have a special place: a little bit away from home; a little bit at home in the wild. Sitting there. Almost hidden. Leaves and shimmering light; birdsong. Nothing disturbs. Especially in spring.

Terry

I moved into this apartment a short time ago. And I felt right at home, when the wooden desk arrived.The one that had previously been in our basement. When my wife restored it, I knew: this is my home now, this is where I can work, this is where I live. ...

Anastasia

There’s something quiet and grounding about sitting here. Here, I don’t have to be anyone in particular. I can just be. This place gives me space to breathe, to think, or not think. And sometimes, that’s exactly what I need to feel safe.

Dafni

When I sit on my balcony in the early evening, I hear the birds singing. What a beautiful contrast: I see the concrete houses on my street and hear the birds singing at the same time.

Maria

The drawing course. Every Tuesday in a group. At some point, I realized that the class had become important to me. That I had found something beyond writing with which I could express myself creatively. A blank slate lies before me again. And here, I feel ...

Jürgen

The small café is a quiet spot in the middle of the city. The regulars know each other by sight and take their time, while the passing crowd blends in with the atmosphere. The coffee is good and the service impeccable. I sit there—preferably with a good ...

René

On good days, my study transforms into my hobby room. Then I’m not sitting at my desk doing everyday tasks. Instead, I immerse myself in projects I’ve chosen for myself. The room becomes a cabinet of curiosities, filled with all the tools ...

Doris

The kitchen in my small apartment. The sun sometimes shines in. The newspaper, the bills. Everything is in front of me on the table. There’s a large fir tree outside the window. I like watching the squirrels climb up and down it. Especially in spring.

Ilona

The moment I first rehearsed here, I knew this would be „my“ place. That I had found a space here to develop my ideas. In winter, it smells of coal-fired heaters; in summer, I hear the rustling of the trees. Or the jazz music from the cafe ...
