Niki de Saint Phalle, La Sirène, Stravinsky Fountain at the Place Igor Stravinski (Paris), 1982/83
As we are completely snowed in – already more than 25 cm – I have a desire for colour and sun. So I choose the ‘La Sirène’ sculpture by Niki de Saint Phalle to bright up the day.
Here can you find a short biography on the famous creator of the so-called ‘Nanas’, which is enriched by an introduction in her work: Niki de Saint Phalle.

‘ruins of modernity’ is a local fashion label that was founded by Maria Steiner. Her designs for women rank between concept and reduction, but are always elegant and sophisticated.
The label’s inspiration:
“when modernity dawned on the world, rationality and science set their light in people’s minds, black and white started to fade into shades of grey. encrusted, rigid towers of set morals, values and truths crumbled piece by piece. we stand in midst of the ruins of modernity, fallen and broken buildings of values and truth, in midst of the ashes of our past – free to build something new. the label ruins of modernity stands for clean architectural shapes, grown-up emancipated elegance, reduction & minimalism.”

This house fascinates me every time, I come across, because it is surrounded completely by high-rise buildings. I love it, because it disrupts the uniform architecture and symbolizes a different approach to living in a city.
